His men surround him
And yet he stands alone
This is the place he has chosen
Hoping to save them all
The odds against them
Yet still they stand in line
Now as the enemy threaten
Destruction, they're out of time

They're out of time

Formations closing
Each death feels like his own
He sees the cavalry charging
Dispatching the men he's known
The battle surging
All he can do is wait
Did all he could with the planning
He's leaving it up to fate
How did it come to this?
We must win through
Battleground, battleground
See the dead all around
Battleground, battleground
The screams, an awful sound
Battleground, battleground
You take your life in your hands
Battleground, battleground
And make your final stand
On the battleground

I drew this gallant head of war
And cull'd these fiery spirits from the world
To outlook conquest and to win renown
Even in the jaws of danger and of death
♪
The tramp of feet men, so much meat
And with each cry another dies
They took it all, but he won't fall
He will not fall
With every strike he takes a life
The crimson sprays, but still he slays
His many wounds leave him unmoved
He will not move
He
Will
Not fall
He
Will
Not move
He
Will
Not fall
He
Will
Not move
The left flank breaks, the battle takes
A dreadful turn, his rage it burns
Must bring them 'round, he can't fall down
He can't give ground
His arms like lead, the earth turned red
A butcher's bill, he's had his fill
Now rests his blade, a kingdom saved
His legend made
He
Won't
Fall down
He
Won't
Give ground
The
Land
Is saved
His
Name
Is made
