The End Of The War To End All Wars History Version - Sabaton Lyrics

[Narrative Intro]
All things have a beginning and an end. Four years have passed since the first shots were fired. Four empires are no more. The machine of war is resting for now, for this was not the war to end all wars

[Verse 1]
Death, hard to ignore
One million lost five months into the war
Pain, fell one by one
Three years remained, it had only begun
Unable to restore
A map redrawn
Unlike what came before
The future of warfare has dawned

[Verse 2]
Do what must be done
Send off your son, life cut short by a gun
Gas, cover the fields
Gone with the wind, reveal lethal ideals

[Refrain]
And as the end draws near
November dawn
With losses so severe
Cease-fire, their forces withdrawn

[Chorus]
Great war enter
Front and centre
Grand endeavour
Lost forever
Great war enter
Front and centre
Grand endeavour
Lost forever

[Refrain]
And as the end draws near
November dawn
With losses so severe
Cease-fire, their forces withdrawn

[Outro]
November 11th settling the score
From 15 to 20 million
Almost half of the dead civilian
A new world will dawn from empires fallen
The end of the war to end war
