Gods of War Lyrics

Feelin' like it's over, feelin' like there's no love
Feelin' like it's not easy, breathin' life in the dust
On a countdown to zero, take a ride on the nightmare machine

There ain't gonna be heroes
There ain't gonna be anything
Oh, here it comes, here comes the night
Here it comes, hell in the night
Here it comes, here comes the night

When we all fall down
When we walk into silence
When we shadow the sun
When we surrender to violence
Oh, then the damage is done, put away that gun

I don't want to be there
I don't want to be anywhere

Oh, here it comes, here comes the night
Here it comes, hell in the night
Here it comes, here comes the night

That's right
We're fightin' for the gods of war but what the hell we fightin' for?
We're fightin' with the gods of war but I'm a rebel

And I ain't gonna fight no more no way
On a countdown to zero
Take a ride on the nightmare machine
There ain't gonna be heroes
Whoa, there ain't gonna be anything
No

Here it comes, here comes the night
Here it comes, hell in the night
Here it comes, here comes the night

That's right
We're fightin' for the gods of war but what the hell we fightin' for?
We're fightin' with the gods of war but I'm a rebel

We're fightin' for the gods of war but what the hell we fightin' for?
We're fightin' with the gods of war
Heavy

What is the Meaning of Gods of War?

When Def Leppard picks up their guitars, you know it's time to buckle up for a wild ride. 🎸 In this electrifying anthem, they tackle the futility and chaos of war. The lyrics paint a dystopian picture where heroes are nonexistent, and everyone is just a pawn in the "nightmare machine." Amidst the apocalyptic imagery, there's a rebellious spirit questioning the very purpose of conflict: "What the hell we fightin' for?" It's a powerful call-out against blind violence and senseless battles. So next time you're about to charge into something headfirst, maybe channel your inner rebel and ask yourself—are you fighting for the gods of war or just getting swept up in someone else's madness? 🌪️
