[orchestral intro]

[verse 1]

Oh

There is fire in the air that I am breathing

There is blood where the battles rage

These are faces I will not remember

Will I fight for the queen or the slave?

A treacherous part

To play with a heart of courage

Where the wind from the north bodes the dragon

And the armies and legions have formed

We have camp for the night, food and cover

Fading ghosts in the shadows of war

[Chorus]

Battleborne

Battleborne

Battleborne

Battleborne

[verse 2]

Gone

All the villagers led out to pasture

The black wing of death as their liege

Felt the ground, it was bare from the plunder

Soldiers that lie at my feet

The maidens were lost

Wading across an ocean

On a ship heading south to the mainland

I am standing in wake of the storm

I was raised by the wolf and the stallion

This sword was battleborne

[Chorus]

Battleborne

Battleborne

Battleborne

Battleborne
