Forgotten Centurion

Forgotten centurion casualty of war Heading towards the evening sun trying to find my way back home The sun blinds my eyes and my feet are heavy and worn A wound in my side and a long perilous road Forgotten centurion still so far to go Barely enough strength just to drag my sword I'm running out of time and my body's moving slow At the crossroads of life not sure which way I'll go Lost in the black avoiding attack with a devil on my back Energy's waning; slowly dying; my home I'll never reach Gods' mercy I seek, will they answer me, send roman cavalry Soldier forsaken, I'm forgotten, centurion Forgotten centurion casualty of war No coins for the ferryman, no penance for my soul With tears in my eyes I push myself onward I've got death on my mind, and more regrets than I can afford Lost in the black avoiding attack with a devil on my back Energy's waning; slowly dying; my home I'll never reach Gods' mercy I seek, will they answer me, send roman cavalry Soldier forsaken, I'm forgotten, centurion
