One Man War

(album: Over The Horizon Radar - 2022)

In the battle of night
Fighting somewhere
Shadows of forgotten light
Moving to nowhere
Longing for vision
Those dreams of elsewhere
We justify and sacrifice
With hope still in there

Wounded and bleeding
But healing from pain
Take just one more step from treason
And we're out of the rain
Draw your sword against the hate
Open doors to love and faith
Are we strangers you and I
I can hear you cry

It's a one-man war
In a one-man scheme
We got a one-way ticket
To the end of a dream
Be the voice in the crowd
Let your heart be seen
You can break down the walls
So let them hear the scream
Of one man

In the spirit of flight
Out in the open
Finding ways to navigate
The roads we have chosen
Stranded but the outline waits
A future unspoken
Aiming in our universe
For planets and tokens

Aerial views
Over lost Eden
The drone that lives inside my head
Hacked by the demons
Their silhouettes of dark I burn
On my horizon
I'm a soldier of the sun
So battered and wizened

This inner maze
Of violent changes
Obstacles that cut so deep
And all rearranges
The malice and divine
Gaming for the throne
In the eyes of danger
Another warrior sold

It's a one-man war
In a one-man dream
Got a one-way ticket
For this time machine
Hear the roar of the crowd
It's a magic scene
As I take the stage
I feel the power stream
In my one-man war

Warriors all around
Let your love abound
Burn the coldness down, yeah

In the fire of fight
When your armor is broken
Look inside and you will find
Your will has woken
Rise up from the battleground
Let your spirit sword be found
Sacred is your inner crown
Don't lose it

It's a one-man war
In a one-man life
We gotta rock 'n' roll it
This is our time
To be the sound of the future
The rhythm of the heat
Gonna turn it up louder
We own the beat

There's a one-man war
Somewhere down the road
With their golden tickets
To their favorite show
Hear the roar of the crowd
It's a magic scene
Spotlights hit the stage
And they all share the dream
In a one-man war
