Paladins' Tale

Weary travelers wait to move on
Sitting by a fire side fighting the fog
Summoning the courage for what has to be done
Terror in eyes of all before it's begun

Listening to stories from the old vagabonds
Dragons in the east and evil darkness beyond
Demon's dragging sinners to depths of the Lake
Fear the dead and burn the bodies black at the stake

Panic spread the poison in the paladin crowd
But voices rose above the crippling doubt

Some men succumb and some men succeed
Are you in a place of want or a place of need?
We burnt down the bridge, there is no return, no
We must take all that our blood can earn

Captive by a fear are those who would stay behind
Fully conquered by the Beast inside of their mind
Conviction moves the righteous and the righteous advance
Holy warriors marching off to forsaken lands

Mercy for the sinners as the noble arrive
Tongues of flame upon the flesh the Devil gives life
Falling from the heavens, broken wings, as they die

Journey on departed sons
Glory in the sacrifice
Remnants onward, through the night
Legacy of good men survives

Rays of God down shine upon them
Map of magic etched across the sky
Through haunted cities, they'll meet their deities

The Beast, it lingers
For those who lingered
Death was waiting
Fear will bring her

When the brave had walked away the slaughter began
Left alone without the men who would take a stand
Craven on their knees, and the nightmare released
All the embers fading and the cowardly bleed
Her teeth are pleased, as the monster feeds
All the embers fading and the cowardly bleed
All the embers fading and the cowardly bleed
