The alarm sounds, and I fall out of my bed 
Da Hoard has come to make me dead 
Ballista, ballista, ballista 
Got to get my defenses up
Ballista, ballista, ballista  
This life of mine kind of sucks 

Jump from the top of my spire 
Land beyond the explosive trip wires 
Mortars, mortars, mortars 
Take aim and launch 
Mortars, mortars, mortars 
Going to kill a bunch 

Low under the hills, they spill from the horizon 
High in the skies their reinforcements flies in 
Shredders, shredders, shredders 
Look at the varies parts fly around 
Shredders, shredders, shredders 
Listen to the bodies as the hit the ground 

They keep coming, and coming with no end
Place down more towers to defend 
Overrun, overrun, overrun 
Seems like my time is done 
Overrun, overrun, overrun 
The facts are I don't have enough guns 

Avoiding their wrath of grapes 
Ballista, ballista, ballista 
Covering my escape 
Ballista, ballista, ballista 
Jump through the magic portal heliotrope 
Live to fight another day is my hope 

My spire falls 
Spire falls
Falls
