Shadows Of War

Across shifting sands, into the wasteland A duty to march out to war Ready to fight, the last of our line Our hour of destiny dawns The horizon on fire, we're down to the wire Now that we charge on the guns A price paid in blood, buried in the mud And each breath a knife in my lungs All I see is fear, let the end draw near After the fight at the dying light These are the shadows of war We live in the dust and empire of rust The ones standing over deaths door To carry the flag, we do not turn back Crusaders we never withdraw Head into the mist, we do not resist Never forgot what we saw The darkness draws on, pray we're standing by dawn With torn flesh and shattered bone We stand on this plain, to the end we remain Broken but never alone Look them in the eyes as I take their lives After the fight at the dying light These are the shadows of war We live in the dust and empire of rust The ones standing over deaths door After the fight at the dying light These are the shadows of war We live in the dust and empire of rust The ones standing over deaths door After the fight at the dying light These are the shadows of war We live in the dust and empire of rust The ones standing over deaths door
