Amongst The Boys And The Dead Flowers
Here I lay
In a field by the hill
Amongst the boys and the dead flowers
Keeping perfectly still
The world lights up above me
Thunder I inhale
Shake our coffins as we pray
Shrieking balls of fire and flame
Ode to the fallen hero
Trapped on the firing line
Ode to the end of an empire
Turned into dirt in the rain
We were the blood and the fury
We were the lost in vain
Farewell, my loyal brothers
I hope you all sleep well
We will meet again
When will the stars be bright?
When we are dust?
Or perhaps someday the sun will shine
Before our swords have turned to rust?
They will rise up above me
Thinking I'm in this to my last
Sing with me, stay with me
Ode to the fallen hero
Trapped on the firing line
Ode to the end of an empire
Turned into dirt in the rain
We were the blood and the fury
We were the lost in vain
Farewell, my loyal brothers
I hope you all sleep well
Please tell my mother I was brave
Even though I was afraid
This made my last song
Ode to the fallen hero
Trapped on the firing line
Ode to the end of an empire
Turned into dirt in the rain
We were the blood and the fury
We were the lost in vain
Farewell, my loyal brothers
I hope you all sleep well
We will meet again
We will meet again
In a field by the hill
Amongst the boys and the dead flowers
Keeping perfectly still
The world lights up above me
Thunder I inhale
Shake our coffins as we pray
Shrieking balls of fire and flame
Ode to the fallen hero
Trapped on the firing line
Ode to the end of an empire
Turned into dirt in the rain
We were the blood and the fury
We were the lost in vain
Farewell, my loyal brothers
I hope you all sleep well
We will meet again
When will the stars be bright?
When we are dust?
Or perhaps someday the sun will shine
Before our swords have turned to rust?
They will rise up above me
Thinking I'm in this to my last
Sing with me, stay with me
Ode to the fallen hero
Trapped on the firing line
Ode to the end of an empire
Turned into dirt in the rain
We were the blood and the fury
We were the lost in vain
Farewell, my loyal brothers
I hope you all sleep well
Please tell my mother I was brave
Even though I was afraid
This made my last song
Ode to the fallen hero
Trapped on the firing line
Ode to the end of an empire
Turned into dirt in the rain
We were the blood and the fury
We were the lost in vain
Farewell, my loyal brothers
I hope you all sleep well
We will meet again
We will meet again
