Sabaton
Versailles (History Edition)
[Verse 1]
The war had been raging and ravaging for four years, leaving millions of casualties from all sides. In the trenches of the frontline, people have asked the question: what is the price of peace? How many more must die?
Exactly five years after the assassination of Franz Ferdinand, Germany is forced to sign an unconditional surrender. For the signing of this historical document, the French city of Versailles is chosen
[Chorus]
Sign a treaty to change the world
Tensions fall and the peace unfurled
Nothing like what had come before
It's the deal, it's the treaty that will end the war
Signed a treaty to change the world
Tensions fall and a peace is unfurled
Nothing like what had come before
It's the deal, it's the treaty that will end the war
[Verse 2]
A fragile but hopeful peace falls upon the European continent
America returns to their shores
Russia tend to their own matters
And the British Empire disbands their colonial forces
Parades are being held in victorious countries
The war that would end all wars is over
But not everyone agrees
In the underground, something is growing in the dark
Because for some, the war never ended
War will never entirely die
It will evolve, it will change
And war will return
Sooner than we think
[Chorus]
Signed a treaty to change the world
Tensions fall and a peace is unfurled
Nothing like what had come before
It's the deal, it's the treaty that will end the war
Signed a treaty to change the world
Tensions fall and a peace is unfurled
Nothing like what had come before
It's the deal, it's the treaty that will end the war
[Instrumental break]
[Bridge]
From a shot that would change the world
Tensions rise and a war is unfurled
Nothing like what had come before
It's the war that will end all war
From a shot that would change the world
Tensions rise and a war is unfurled
Nothing like what had come before
It's the war that will end all war
[Outro]
Will this war really end all wars?
Can a war really end all war?
Will this war bring another war?
It's the war that will end all wars
Will this war really end all wars?
Can a war really end all war?
Will this war bring another war?
It's the war that will end all wars
Will this war really end all wars?
Can a war really end all war?
Will this war bring another war?
It's the war that will end all wars
Will this war really end all wars?
Can a war really end all war?
Will this war bring another war?
It's the war that will end all wars
