Facing the enemy, we fight each other

Armies of one on a shared battlefield
We are soldiers, and soldiers bleed
Blood drips sluggishly from our wounds
As we fight for others' greed
 
We should work together as a team
We are an army, after all
Instead we choose to fight alone
And watch our comrades' fall
 
We tear apart our enemy
One by one we take them down
But for every one of them we find
We bury three in ground
 
Our armies of one are dwindling
Our gunfire falls short
Desperate times for desperate measures
And we are forced to our last resort
 
Our tactics are outdated
With them, our chance is slim
But if two men fight together
The light is not so dim
 
These armies of one aren't practical
Alliances are made in war
If we choose to fight together
We may become those men of lore.
