Lyrics

[Verse 1]
As a young boy chasin' dragons with your wooden sword so mighty
You're St. George or you're David and you always killed the beast
Times change very quickly and you had to grow up early
A house in smoking ruins and the bodies at your feet
[Verse 2]
You'll die as you lived in a flash of the blade
In a corner, forgotten away
You lived for the touch, for the feel of the steel
One man and his honor
[Verse 3]
The smell of resined leather, the steely iron mask
As you cut and thrust and parry at the fencing master's call
He taught you all he ever knew, to fear no mortal man
And now you'll wreak your vengeance on the screams of evil men
[Verse 4]
You'll die as you lived in the flash of the blade
In a corner, forgotten away
You lived for the touch, for the feel of the steel
One man and his honor
[Verse 5]
You'll die as you lived in a flash of the blade
In a corner, forgotten away
You lived for the touch, for the feel of the steel
One man and his honor
[Verse 6]
You'll die as you lived in a flash of the blade
In a corner, forgotten away
You lived for the touch, for the feel of the steel
One man and his honor
