Pyrrhic Victory Lyrics


Every bridge has been burned

Every building razed

The earth has been salted

Around me, a wasteland

Everything I had, I have spent

On this war of desolation

Alone, I feast on the carrion

All that is left of that for which I fought

Stripped away, the armour of indifference

Naked and alone, a quivering wreck

Too tender, too raw to run

The only defence, a vicious attack

Cut down all who come near

Lest they too cause pain

Blinded by fear, stand resolute

An island, a rock, alone

Triumphant I stand, Pyrrhus reborn

One more such victory and we are lost
