As the sun rises I see our banners flowing in the wind And the sounds of trumpets calling for war
All that night I lay awake Thinking you, thinking war The madness and despair I have seen
Now the time has come We will charge to our doom Arrows are whistling by my ears as we ride
[Pre-Chorus] Please my guardian angel Let me see my love again In the mercy I thrive Shelter me, as I shelter mine
[Chorus] I'm riding away From the light of the day A letter left behind to lighten my way I'm writing to you Maybe (the) last time now Please let me see your face once more again
Screaming men I left behind I am sure they all will die Blood is covering my armor and my sword
Where is the honour? The code we all held? In this madness we all turn to beasts Gathered at a grim feast
Our banner is down We are scourged to death Flash of pain was the last thing I saw in my life
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus] I'm dying away, I'm leaving today My rusting sword, lost, alone in this fray I wrote to you My last farewell Please let me see your face once more again
