"When Honor Dies" lyrics

"When Honor Dies"

Proud and ancient land
Noble souls, a final stand
Blood on fallen leaves
Left alone and lost
Darkest lines that I must cross
Lords unite with thieves
Fear in the blade
The spirits of the fallen fade
Soil and degrade
My legacy and name
Bending the code
Defile the duty long bestowed
Burdened by the shame

When honor dies
There will be no pride in victory
When honor dies
I will be denied my history
I give my everything
Return the reckoning
Glare of the Ghost fills my eyes
When honor dies

Balance for the mind
Blossoms paint the paths and shrines
Nature's poetry
Strike from the shade
Tradition of the kin betrayed
Soil and degrade
My lineage and claim
Exile and pain
A poison in the dying vein
Burdened by the shame

When honor dies
There will be no pride in victory
When honor dies
I will be denied my history
I give my everything
Return the reckoning
Glare of the Ghost fills my eyes
When honor dies

Ghost of the fallen, the wind is ever guiding
Vengeance is calling a specter in the night
Ghost of the fallen, golden wings are gliding
Feeding the soil, so the world can return to life

Ghost of the fallen, the wind is ever guiding
Vengeance is calling a specter in the night
Ghost of the fallen, golden wings are gliding
Feeding the soil, so the world can return to life

My soul still cries
When honor dies
There will be no pride in victory
When honor dies
I will be denied my history
I give my everything
Return the reckoning
Glare of the Ghost fills my eyes
When honor dies
