|
The lights go down |
|
To the deafening sound |
|
Thunder clouds rolling in through the night |
|
My heartbeat pounds |
|
As the heavens resound |
|
In the wide invincible sky |
|
The lightning strikes |
|
From celestial heights |
|
Goes to ground and testifies |
|
Its broken chains |
|
Like symmetrical veins |
|
Crack the black terrestrial night |
|
The fortress walls |
|
Face the numberless hordes |
|
Will they stand the test of time? |
|
The hourglass stands |
|
Almost empty of sand |
|
Live or die on destiny's shrine |
|
The cruel wind cries |
|
It incessantly whines |
|
In the face of the battle to come |
|
In strength and size |
|
This colossal divide |
|
Is a vast immeasurable one |
|
The horns that sound |
|
Strike fear in the proud |
|
But we're snared and there's nowhere to run |
|
We'll live or die |
|
With heads held high |
|
Till the mighty victory's won |
|
The skyline cloaked |
|
By the blackening smoke |
|
That defies the naked eye |
|
We stand our ground |
|
Inextricably bound |
|
By the ties of friendship and pride |
|
We flight the bow |
|
And wait for the archer's drum |
|
We strike the blow |
|
That's straight to the heart, our shields to the hun |
|
We fight as we try to keep our dreams alive |
|
That history might recall |
|
Those who braved the kingdom's rise and fall |
|
Fought from the city walls |
|
Retreat or stand |
|
Is the law of this land |
|
In the cold hearted thick of the fight |
|
And death's reign damned |
|
My superlative plans |
|
Making pyres of dreams and old times |
|
For Isengard |
|
Cast flames through the heart |
|
Like the fireball crossing the sky |
|
The Helms Deep walls |
|
Lie breached in the dark |
|
As we stand defenceless inside |
|
The brave and pure |
|
For a moment stand sure |
|
Then to sanctuary we fly |
|
The hordes can't reach |
|
Our impregnable keep |
|
Till the light of dawn when we ride |
|
We flight the bow |
|
And wait for the archer's drum |
|
We strike the blow |
|
That's straight to the heart, our shields to the hun |
|
We fight as we try to keep our dreams alive |
|
That history might recall |
|
Those who braved the kingdom's rise and fall |
|
Fought from the city walls |
|
We flight the bow |
|
And wait for the archer's drum |
|
We strike the blow |
|
That's straight to the heart, our shields to the hun |
|
We fight as we try to keep our dreams alive |
|
That history might recall |
|
Those who braved the kingdom's rise and fall |
|
Fought from the city walls |
|
We flight the bow |
|
And wait for the archer's drum |
|
We strike the blow |
|
That's straight to the heart, our shields to the hun |
|
We fight as we try to keep our dreams alive |
|
That history might recall |
|
Those who braved the kingdom's rise and fall |
|
Fought from the city walls |
|
Fought from the city walls |
