The Battle
The Battle
 Two armies stood,
 Like the mountains great
 Waiting, waiting
 Waiting for the call
 For the call that would bring them
 Victory, sweet victory,
 Or death
 
 Finally, a voice that boomed
 Like the heathen gods of old
 Ordered them to war
 And so with a roar and a crash
 The two armies met with in thunderous clash
 To fight and kill and die
 All for the glory that would bring them
 All for the glory that would bring them
 Fame and honor
 Or cold, merciless death
 
 The battle lasted throughout the day
 And through the night
 Clashing like the waves of the oceans wide
 With sword and shield and spear
 Clashing below
 And arrow and bolt and fire
 Raining hell above
 And with one last stroke of the 
 Cold steel of his blade
 His enemy fell
 Cast down to the blood soaked mud
 
 And the victor raised his blood stained blade
 Shining red as the morning dawn
 Alone in that plane of the dead
 Lonely in the ruined wasteland
 But victorious through the blood of his comrades
 Roma Victor
