By the bloody barracks, breathe mournfully buried brothers lost in battle.
Combat was Crooked and Cruel;
As each station was stolen by the soldiers was for state-safety.
If not defeated, the demon will demolish destinies as destruction spreads.

It's about war and how no one realizes what it's like unless they witness it themself.
