As Empires Fall

The Seljuks attack from under the sun They raided in far central Asia The Byzantine empire crawl on its knees Call for holy war The knights of the west united by Rome Responded with rage and euphoria The gathering masses enlist in a holy crusade Far and away they're marching Every hour of the day Over land and cross the plains In darkness we prevail Hear my call in the distance roar Like a temple bell over mountains high Hear my call when the darkness falls In the name of our lord and our king For every sacred promise And for every sacred soul Hear my call in the distance roar Like a temple bell As empires fall Was signed by the cross and blessed by the church They rode into death into Gloria The fall of the empire rest in their hands Call for holy war The light of the west was tainted by blood Reflected and spread mass hysteria The slaughter of innocent back-fired led to the fall Far and away they’re marching Every hour of the day Over land and cross the plains In darkness we prevail Hear my call in the distance roar Like a temple bell over mountains high Hear my call when the darkness falls In the name of our lord and our king For every sacred promise And for every sacred soul Hear my call in the distance roar Like a temple bell As empires fall Bear the cross like an armour defending the weak And the fate of all in this life until death The darkness will fade away Hear my call in the distance roar Like a temple bell over mountains high Hear my call when the darkness falls In the name of our lord and our king For every sacred promise And for every sacred soul Hear my call in the distance roar Like a temple bell As empires fall

We say a prayer in the dark Light a fire light the spark When morning comes They'll breach the walls With all their might The kingdom falls Raise your swords up high Defenders of Jerusalem In the burning skies I will claim all your lives, heaven Heaven waits for us all Defenders of Jerusalem Like a shining star in the sky We lay our swords to the ground Holy oath where I was bound We kept the promises of old An ancient story nevеr told Raise your swords up high Defendеrs of Jerusalem In the burning skies I will claim all your lives, heaven Heaven waits for us all Defenders of Jerusalem In the burning skies I will claim all your lives, heaven Heaven waits for us all Defenders of Jerusalem Like a shining star in the sky Bury the dead Say a prayer in the dark Lay 'em to rest forever Facing the east, a shining star In the burning skies I will claim all your lives, heaven Heaven waits for us all Defenders of Jerusalem Like a shining star Defenders of Jerusalem In the burning skies I will claim all your lives, heaven Heaven waits for us all Defenders of Jerusalem Like a shining star In the burning skies I will claim all your lives, heaven Heaven waits for us all Defenders of Jerusalem Like a shining star Like a shining star Like a shining star
