Echoes Of War Lyrics by Great American Ghost is a brand-new English song in the voice of popular band Great American Ghost, featured in the album “Tragedy of the Commons”. The lyrics of this song explore themes of control, dependence, and the paradox of free will versus submission. It describes a follower bound by commands, losing autonomy and identity in the name of repentance and obedience. The dream of liberation or redemption is portrayed as false, with free will depicted as an illusion created by an enemy. The imagery suggests a struggle against oppressive forces, where promises of paradise are deceptive and lead to inevitable destruction. The repetition of “a hex on you” reinforces the idea of a curse or doom, symbolizing the inescapable cycle of suffering and betrayal. Ultimately, the song reflects on the futility of submission and the illusion of freedom in a world dominated by control and despair.

Echoes Of War Lyrics
Follower
You are beckoned by command
Speak when you’re spoken to
Do all they ask
And fucking thank them
The paradox of repentance
Where is your spine?
Does it cling to dependence?
The dream dissolved
The cross fell down
You can enter the kingdom
But you’ll never wear the crown
The shine of a thousand eyes
Burning through the floor
A paradise awaits in flames
You always come back for morе
And I gave you it all
The sorrow that we sworе
Would die as we repent
For the echoes of our war
A dream is a lie
Without a memory
Free will is a lie
From an enemy
All hail the horrid creation
Prophecy of the forsaken
The dead depart
Into the ground
You can enter the kingdom
But you’ll never wear the crown
The shine of a thousand eyes
Burning through the floor
A paradise awaits in flames
You always come back for more
And I gave you it all
The sorrow that we swore
Would die as we repent
For the echoes of our war
(A Hex On You)
(A Hex On You)
Delusions of hope
Stolen with every breath
(A Hex On You)
The curse around your neck
Will drag you to your death
A hex on you
A hex on you
The curse around your neck
Will drag you to your death
The curse around your neck
Will drag you to your death
(A Hex On You)
A dream is a lie
(A Hex On You)
A dream is a lie
(A Hex On You)
A dream is a lie
Free will is a lie
