[Verse 1]
You came down hard
On a dead red sky
Bones in the dirt
And a grin in your eye
Capes torn up
Over broken stone
We learned real fast
You don't fight alone
[Pre-Chorus]
He said, "Stand back"
Like that meant more
But we were already
Bleeding on the floor
Your crown is rust
Your law is a knife
We bite back now
We want our lives
[Chorus]
Viltrumite War
Burn, burn, burn
Viltrumite War
We don't turn
Viltrumite War
Hear that sound
We were born in pain
Still we won't bow down
(born in pain)
(still we won't bow down)
[Verse 2]
Mark hit the wall
And got back up
Blood on his teeth
Still calling your bluff
Nolan looked cold
But his hands shook loose
A family split
By a planet's noose
Space went black
When the punches flew
Every lie you told
Came back on you
[Pre-Chorus]
You bred your fear
Like it was truth
Now it's choking hard
In the mouth of youth
Every street you took
Every world you scarred
Now the weak get mean
And the strong get hard
[Chorus]
Viltrumite War
Burn, burn, burn
Viltrumite War
We don't turn
Viltrumite War
Hear that sound
We were born in pain
Still we won't bow down
(born in pain)
(still we won't bow down)
[Bridge]
Tell your empire
It can choke on dust
We watched saints turn fools
And trust turn rust
One more strike
Then the whole thing cracks
A ruined throne
Can't haul you back
Can't haul you back
[Final Chorus]
Viltrumite War
Burn, burn, burn
Viltrumite War
We don't turn
Viltrumite War
Hear that sound
We were born in pain
Still we won't bow down
Viltrumite War
Hands in the air
Viltrumite War
We were there
(born in pain)
(still we won't bow down)
