Lyrics

They're handing out the weapons

Weapons are being distributed.

And your armour's ready too

Your protective gear is prepared.

But the most important item

An essential item is left to your discretion.

Has been left up to you

You must make a critical decision.

You must make a firm decision

The decision is significant and binding.

And once it's made you'll find

Once decided, it dominates your thoughts.


That the form that you have chosen

Your chosen form occupies your mind entirely.

Can entirely fill your mind

The selected form has a profound impact.

For the mask you have selected

The chosen mask symbolizes Chaos or Law.

Stands for Chaos or for Law

The decision is irreversible during the conflict.

And you cannot take it off now

You cannot remove the mask until the war ends.

'Til you're no longer in the War

The commitment lasts until the war concludes.


And the Masks of War are grinning

Masks of War are ominous and mocking.

And from under them you howl

You vocalize your allegiance from beneath the mask.

Out the slogans of the part you play

Expressing slogans for your chosen role.

for the Battle's starting now

The battle is commencing.

Choose your Masks

An imperative command to select your masks.

The ranks are forming

Ranks are assembling.


Choose your Masks

The decision must be made as the day begins.

The day is dawning

The dawn is here, choose your masks accordingly.

Choose your Masks

The call to choose sides is reiterated.

And choose the side that you'll be on

Select the faction you align with.

And learn the words of your new song

Learn the ideology represented by your chosen side.

For the Battle will be long so long

The battle will be prolonged.
