Lyrics

War Begun

[Chorus]

Stolen as the war's begun, this time your soul is my one

Stolen as the war's begun, this time your soul is my one

[Verse 1]

I belong to a race of robots, drowning out my one

Anytime your war gets out of hand I'll take it on

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]

I'd move on, but I know you'll need me some day

I'd roll on, but I know you'll need me some day

[Outro]

Some day

Some day

Some day...
