Lyrics

First Verse:
It's a war of attrition, and its coming straight for your heart
I can see, the ammunition, and it's coming to tear you apart Chorus:
Calling out, can you see it's oh so frightening? Calling out, coming out
Calling out, can you see the smoke and lightning? Calling out from the dark

Second Verse:
Here comes the enemy, they're a silent killer, they come out in the middle of the night
Without a warning, without a whisper
It's unfair, you can't put up a fight

Optional Second Verse:
He's your enemy, he's fast approaching,
And he's coming to take you out
Without a sign, without a warning
And all he wants is to leave no doubt

Chorus: Repeat

Bridge:
And you feel like you can't take it anymore
And you don't know what you're looking for
Direct your head up to the sky
Keep your head, held up high, up high
You'll survive, you'll be all right

And you feel like the walls are closing in,
And you feel like the world won't let you win
Remember you're not alone
You can find your way back home, oh oh
You're not alone, you're not alone
You're right at home, Oh you're right at home!!

Chorus: Repeat twice and fade
