lyrics
“Fight,” says the Lion as he goes to war
Armed with a word and a bastard sword
In hand, a shield – formed from fire
His teeth are bared, vengeance borne
“Peace!” cries the Rose with a poisoned thorn
“March!” urges Death, his patience worn
The match is made, allegiance o’er,
“Lie in wait,” says the Veteran Soldier
Chorus:
Don’t waste time, lay down your arms now
Give the sign, fire and blood vow
Hear the chime, fight for a gold crown
Hold the line, push forward to dance now
“Halt” says the Guard as he kneels to pray:
“God, guide our souls and swords today.”
But who’s to lose and who’s to win
When all good men are plagued with sin?
Chorus
(Solo + Instrumental Bridge)
Chorus
“Thus,” says the King as he breathes his last,
Death takes his hand and claims his past
One war is won as mortals drown for
Blood still stains the Golden Crown…
