I stand alone and gaze upon the battlefield
Wasteland is all that's left after the fight
And now I'm searching a new way to defeat my enemy
Bloodshed, I've seen enough of death and pain
I will run, they will hunt me in vain
I will hide, they'll be searching
I'll regroup, feign retreat, they'll pursue
Coup de grâce, I will win but never fight
(Mercy killing)
That's the art of war
Breaking the will to fight among the enemy, force them to hunt me
They will play my game and play by my rules
I will be close but still untouchable
No more will I see suffering and pain
They will find me no more, I'll be gone
I will have them surrounded
They will yield without fight overrun, overrun
Coup de grâce, I will win but never fight
That's the Art of War
Broken and lost, tired of war
They'll surrender to me
Caught in my trap, there's no way out
Fail never again
I will run, they will hunt me in vain
I will hide, they'll be searching
I'll regroup, feign retreat, they'll pursue
Coup de grâce, I will win but never fight
(Mercy killing)
That's the art of war
