Broken Sword, Rotten Shield

Broken sword, rotten shield

All warriors fall on the field

Old hymns for a broken sword

All lords drink from the sewer

Empty prayers for a rotten shield

The sting of loss remains cruelest

Broken sword, rotten shield

Old hymns, empty prayers

Human disintegration

Erosion of will and devotion

The toll of dedication

The faltering of plate mail armor

Enraptured with the fog of war

And certainty of failure

The sting of loss remains cruelest

Broken sword, rotten shield

Old hymns, empty prayers

All oaths broken

Fallen knight dies

All oaths broken

Fallen knight dies (Dies)
