Border Raid In Lions March lyrics

Artist: Human Fortress Album: Defenders Of The Crown
Lyrics
[L: parcharidis / m: marquardt]
When the lion arrived, the war did start - a wicked day, indeed 'Cause sweat and blood abounded - from all men and steed
See the daylight lay in ashes - while the dead are still Hear the armies roar for freedom - on the blackened border hill
The lion looks, looks across the plain - and questions battles in avoidable pain Heaves a wistfull sigh - and wishes the battle, the battle was a lie
Army of some thousand fighting - men climbed the frowning ridge With their flaming swords all drawn free - and their pennants at the knee
Their waving of their banners - and the rattle of their spears Risen to break the dominion - and bring peace for years
Now at least I've come to see what my life is - nothing's ended, it only begun And the brave victories that seemed so splendid - they were never, never really won
[Chorus] To border raid, to border raid in lions march The battle smoke has fled Just after a century and a quarter past Tonight We border raid - we border raid in lions march The battle smoke has fled Just after a century and a quarter past Lord blessed by the dead
[Chorus]
