"Broken Sword, Rotten Shield" lyrics

"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
