banners - volker lyrics

[verse 1]
pushed back inside the outpost high on the shores under foreign skies
with starvation nigh their banners fly as they choose how they shall die
they gear their men for one last stand reinforcements are nowhere in sight
raise your sword and claim your reward on the battlefield tonight

[chorus 1]
for their banners
they are fighting
they are falling
for the legend
for their children
to grow strong

[verse 2]
through the night the hopeless fight rages on through the smoke and the flames
the blood runs cold through the young and the old and the bold die to honor their names
the horizon bleeds as the dawn it feeds on the blood*drenched fields of war
those that remain their spirits wane pushed back to the edge of the shore

[chorus 2]
for their banners
they are striving
they are dying
for the glory
of their kingdom
for their honor
[bridge]
lay your head by the riverbed, where waters run red
lay your head by the riverbed, where waters run red
take my last words and bear them on the wind
across the shore to my kin
i see the sunrise for the last time
and if i die alone, i’ll dream of home

on the horizon i see a banner
as a ship comes sailing in
on the sunrise i see a banner
as a ship comes sailing in
through the fog i see the banners
as the ships come sailing in
the men around me start to cry
that the ships come sailing in
we find the will to stand for one last time
as the ships come sailing in
and line up together side*by*side
as the ships come sailing in
on the horizon i see the banners
as the fleet comes sailing in
