Description
Our king has now seen the horrors of the battlefield and reflects upon his deeds as he watches his soldiers die.
Lyrics
now upon this shattered ocean our king stands torn his kingdom once flourished now he sounds the winter horn his troops rally forth to his battle cry with only broken shields their swords held high death comes for them as they fall tonight his heart burns for them as war takes their lives now he raises the bloodied banners as he stands over the dead his mace is broken quickly his crown falls from his head all the women wait for their men but they will not return the fatherless children now ready to fight suffer the heart's burn all across this battlefield bodies cover the ground a bloody river where the men once drank makes a sorrow filled sound his troops rally forth to his battle cry with only broken shields their swords held high death comes for them as they fall tonight his heart burns for them as war takes their lives there will be no one to follow him as he presses on the dead will find their places in the kingdom of the sun and for this he cries aloud it comes to an end for the last one looks toward him ready to fight again his troops rally forth to his battle cry with only broken shields their swords held high death comes for them as they fall tonight his heart burns for them as war takes their lives
