<h2>The battle rages on</h2>

<small>Words &amp; music by Ritchie Blackmore, Ian Gillan, Jon Lord, Roger Glover and Ian Paice</small>

<p>
Been so many words, so much to say<br>
Words are not enough to keep the guns at bay<br>
Some live in fear, some do not<br>
Some gamble everything on who gets the final shot<br>
Aah don't talk to me of love<br>
Ooh it's obvious it's not enough<br>
Annihilation, kill them all<br>
Capitulation, watch the mighty fall<br>
The road to glory is lined in red<br>
Though the reason now is gone<br>
The battle rages on<br>
<p>
Was it love or hate that got there first?<br>
Hate's a habit, it's hard to shake the curse<br>
Kill to live, live to die<br>
Human nature, you let the strong survive<br>
Aah don't talk to me of love<br>
Ooh be serious, it's not enough<br>
Annihilation, kill them all<br>
Capitulation, watch the mighty fall<br>
Yhe road to glory is lined in red<br>
And though the reason now is gone<br>
The battle rages on<br>
<p>
Annihilation, kill them all<br>
Capitulation, watch the mighty fall<br>
The road to glory is lined in red<br>
Though the reason now is gone...<br>
<p
Annihilation, kill them all<br>
Capitulation, watch the mighty fall<br>
The road to glory is lined in red<br>
And though the reason now is gone...<br>
<p>
