Leave the Porch Light On

Prompt

A country song a[Verse] Log in to the chaos, stones in the sky Watch the towers crumble, watch the banners fly Foundations are shaking, the kings lost their crown Building up the walls just to tear them all down Marching through the dirt, gold in our sight Rallying the clowns in the middle of the night Every keep is burning, every bridge is gone Only the strongest survive until the dawn [Chorus] The reality of war is cold No friends when the story is told Zero your team, leave nothing but dust We keep it a hundred, in steel we trust The reality of war is cold No friends when the story is told [Verse] Check the scout report, see where they hide Nowhere is safe on the dark side We move like a storm, we strike like a blade Counting every debt that hasn’t been paid The map is a graveyard of empires past Nothing you build was ever meant to last While you’re still talking, we’re at the gate Deciding the winner, deciding your fate [Chorus] The reality of war is cold No friends when the story is told Zero your team, leave nothing but dust We keep it a hundred, in steel we trust The reality of war is cold No friends when the story is told [Chorus] The reality of war is cold No friends when the story is told Zero your team, leave nothing but dust We keep it a hundred, in steel we trust The reality of war is cold No friends when the story is told [Outro]bout my best friend moving to a new town — acoustic guitar and fiddle, warm vocal, a big singalong chorus
