Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Boots by the door
Dust on my name tag
Keys hit the counter
Head still in combat
Hallway feels heavy
Shoulders made of stone
Heart like a riot
Breaking on its own
[Pre-Chorus]
Then I hear it
Little storms of laughter
Tiny feet
Pounding down the rafters
[Chorus]
This is my war-cry
Laying my armor down
House of quiet thunder
Shaking the whole damn ground
Kids in the crossfire of blankets and toy grenades
You press start on your world and the fear just fades
I’ve been fighting all day in a crooked world
But I fall to my knees when I see my girl
This is my war-cry
But I don’t need steel
Your living room lightning makes the darkness heal
[Verse 2]
Son with a cape on
Screaming
“You’re the bad guy!” (hey!)
Daughter with markers
Drawing on my old sky
You on the sofa
Locked in a boss fight
Glow on your cheekbones
Blue from the screen light
[Pre-Chorus]
You look up
Smile cuts through the chatter
Like you knew
I was coming home shattered
[Chorus]
This is my war-cry
Laying my armor down
House of quiet thunder
Shaking the whole damn ground
Kids in the crossfire of blankets and toy grenades
You press start on your world and the fear just fades
I’ve been fighting all day in a crooked world
But I fall to my knees when I see my girl
This is my war-cry
But I don’t need steel
Your living room lightning makes the darkness heal
[Bridge]
I was built to break
You were built to mend
You turn chaos into breathing again
Every shout
Every cheer
Every pixel glow
Is a shield on my back when I have to go
[Chorus]
This is my war-cry
Laying my armor down
House of quiet thunder
Shaking the whole damn ground
Kids in the crossfire of blankets and toy grenades
You press start on your world and the fear just fades
I’ve been fighting all day in a crooked world
But I fall to my knees when I see my girl
This is my war-cry
This is how I heal
Your laughter
Your game lights
That’s my forged steel

Style
rock, Modern hard rock ballad; low, ominous riff in dropped tuning that blooms into a wide, melodic metal chorus. Male vocals start gravelly and intimate over palm-muted guitars, then soar with stacked harmonies on the hook. Choruses hit with double-kick accents, wide rhythm guitars, and a singing lead line mirroring the vocal melody; bridge strips to clean arpeggios, then slams back with a half-time, fists-in-the-air finale., hard rock, metal
