Some Unholy War

About Some Unholy War

"Some Unholy War" is a reflection on the strength of an unconditional love. The narrator is determined to stand by her partner and support him through his struggles, no matter the cost. She is willing to battle alongside him, although she cannot help but feel scared and anxious as they wait for the outcome. The chorus questions why he is fighting, and reminds the listener that if he was, she would have offered her life too. This song is a celebration of loyalty and strength, and of being a support to the person you love. .
