Lost song meaning

This track was formerly titled ‘Fast Melodic’, based simply on it’s fast tempo, and melodic tunes. M. Shadows explains, “We wanted to make a song that kind of reminded us of our old school stuff – kinda like Second Heartbeat-ish, where it’s more punk-driven.” The Rev adds, “The lyrics are really impacting,” as the song is based primarily on war. “The song is about mankind just always being obsessed with war. That’s just how it kinda is. Y’know, there’s people who preach for peace and stuff, it’s a really nice thought, but mankind has always been based on war, and conquering… and you always know that empires will crumble and there’ll be another war to be rule of supreme,” says Shadows, describing the basis for the song.
