They're handing out the weapons -
And your armour's ready too
But the most important item -
Has been left up to you
You must make a firm decision -
And once it's made you'll find
That the form that you have chosen -
Can entirely fill your mind
For the mask you have selected -
Stands for Chaos or for Law
And you cannot take it off now -
Til you're no longer -
In the war
In the war
In the war [Fade out]
In the war
Choose your Masks -
The ranks are forming
Choose your Masks -
The day is dawning
Choose your Masks -
And choose the side that you'll be on
And learn the words of your new song
For the Battle will be long -
So long
And your armour's ready too
But the most important item -
Has been left up to you
You must make a firm decision -
And once it's made you'll find
That the form that you have chosen -
Can entirely fill your mind
For the mask you have selected -
Stands for Chaos or for Law
And you cannot take it off now -
Til you're no longer -
In the war
In the war
In the war [Fade out]
In the war
Choose your Masks -
The ranks are forming
Choose your Masks -
The day is dawning
Choose your Masks -
And choose the side that you'll be on
And learn the words of your new song
For the Battle will be long -
So long
