Masada

Imperial forces high on horses
All the King's men
No remorse, we've run our course
As far as we can
When kingdom-come is my crusade
I bear the burden of the blade
To my misfortune
My whole portion I will commend

Barbarian legions burning beacons
Deep in the night
Tried for treason, rhyme nor reason
Dead to all rights
Scarlett armies at the gate
The hour is tragically late
Hungry and weak
I turn my cheek and draw the knife

And I will render unto Caesar
What is Caesar's
Surrender only to the calling I received
If I'm the last to take a bow
My task is holier than thou
And all the walls of Rome
Won't stop me
All the walls of Rome
Won't stop me
All the walls of Rome
Won't stop me now

Conditions conspire
Blood and fire
Confront the condemned
Time expires
No survivors left to defend
Draw the straws and cast the die
Make it fast before they cry
By my command this land will
Never tumble again

And I will render unto Caesar
What is Caesar's
Surrender only to the calling I received
If I'm the last to take a bow
My task is holier than thou
And all the walls of Rome
Won't stop me
All the walls of Rome
Won't stop me
All the walls of Rome
Won't stop me now

And all the walls of Rome
Won't stop me
All the walls of Rome
Won't stop me
All the walls of Rome
Won't stop me now
