Headstrong into the storm

The first days of the war are gone
Take back your former throne and turn the tide

Cause if you never leave home, never let go
You'll never make it to the great unknown till you
Keep your eyes open, my love

I need to hear it, can you promise me to
Keep your eyes open, my love

When the sides have been chosen
