about

Inspired by the books in the Cross Stitch (Outlander) series by DIana Gabaldon. Lyrics by Chrissy Scarfe

lyrics

Thundering hooves across the plains
Echoing screams of those who are slain
Fighting a battle that no one can win
Blood raining down, steel within
Drawing their swords, fighting in vain
God fearing men, dying and praying

Fighting for freedom
Fighting for pride
Fighting for warlords
Who plan our demise

Fighting for Glory
Fighting for land
Follow our leaders
Our lives in their hands

Armies of soldiers march straight into death
The blood of their enemies stain the earth
The Lords of war stand high on a hill
Watching others execute their will
No thought for their women, daughters or sons
All that they see, is the war must be won

Fighting for freedom
Fighting for pride
Fighting for warlords
Who plan our demise

Fighting for Glory
Fighting for land
Follow our leaders
Our lives in their hands

Victorious Lords,Retire from the hill,
Return to their castles, and drink their fill
Basking in glory,Toasting themselves,
Feasting on bloodshed, reliving the hell
Peasants left starving,Mourning their dead
Victims of bloodlust, drowning in red

Fighting for freedom
Fighting for pride
Fighting for warlords
Who plan our demise

Fighting for Glory
Fighting for land
Follow our leaders
Our lives in their hands

It's real heavy Us Metal, made in the dark ages of music (late 90ies/early 2000), when there was little hope for real metal to prevail. So: Pay respect and glory to Skullview LexMetalUndergroundAustria
