The Future of Warfare (History Version)

作曲 : Joakim Brodén

作词 : Joakim Brodén

1914.

How peculiar is that a single bullet can trigger a chain of events that would change the World forever.

Nations would be torn apart,

empires would fall,

and an entire continent would be set ablaze in the wake of this event.

Alliances are triggered in a chain reaction,

resulting in a War that sweeps across Europe like a merciless plague.

Armies would destroy the land,

soldiers dig endless trenches,

and the shells would leave scars on Earth for generations to come.

We would also see the birth of some of the most devastating inventions mankind has ever conceived.

Born in factories,

delivered by engineers,

immune to the bullets of the regular soldier,

unbothered by the burdens of the land.

the Tank: the future of warfare

Standing in the line of fire

32 will lead the way

Coming over trench and wire

Going through the endless grey

A desolate wasteland

Infernal depiction of hell

The birth of a new way

September 15, 1916

The first wave approaches

At Flers-Courcelette

Through fire and brimstone

Breaking away, coming your way

Standing in the line of fire

32 will lead the way

Coming over trench and wire

Going through the endless grey

Standing in the line of fire

Moving on and through the fray

Coming over trench and wire

Live to fight another day

The spell has been broken

A new way to wage war has come

The future of warfare

For all to be seen, 1918

The new world approaches

Villers-Bretonneux

Mechanized warfare

Breaking away, coming your way

Standing in the line of fire

32 will lead the way

Coming over trench and wire

Going through the endless grey

Standing in the line of fire

Moving on and through the fray

Coming over trench and wire

Live to fight another day

Standing in the line of fire

Moving on and through the fray

Coming over trench and wire

Live to fight another day

Standing in the line of fire

32 will lead the way

Coming over trench and wire

Going through the endless grey

Standing in the line of fire

Moving on and through the fray

Coming over trench and wire

Live to fight another day
