Lyrics: Ready For The War

Tonight we will talk of beauty
Tonight we will speak about truth
Tonight we will speak of duty
and the promises of youth
Tonight I will be all I have promised
Tonight you will breathe through my skin
Tonight every lie will be honest
and our future will begin

'Cause we're ready for the war
ready for the heat
Choose your battleground now
Why don't we do it in the street
There will be no peace tonight
You're ready for a fight
well I'm ready for the war

Tonight we will sit down in splendour
Tonight even beggars will feast
Tonight every bite will be tender
As moonlight through the trees
Tonight I will swallow your courage
Tonight we will feast on my heart
Tonight every soul will be savaged
and we'll tear this world apart

'Cause we're ready for the war
Ready for the heat
Choose your battleground
Why don't we do it in the street
There will be no peace tonight
No angels at the door
You're ready for me
well I'm ready for the war

Tonight we will love without mercy
Tonight we will glory in greed
Tonight I will beg you to hurt me
or finally set me free
Ready for the war

Ready for the heat
Choose your battleground now
Why don't we do it in the streets
There will be no peace tonight
No angels at the door
You're ready for me
well I'm ready for the war
Ready for me
Ready for the war
