Night falls and I'm feeling lost and very much alone I can't stop the shaking, so cold, weary and battle worn One step away from tears on the verge of breaking down Then you enter my mind and whisper... Please return to me upon your shield or bended knee Your brave words now carry me Believe these horrors I have seen can be but a reverie A battle cry they'll be... not an elegy Dawn breaks and I awake once again to heed the call If I should fall today would I be remembered at all? A single promise to keep I slowly rise on shaky knees Then you enter my mind and whisper... Please return to me upon your shield or bended knee Your brave words now carry me Believe these horrors I have seen can be but a reverie A battle cry they'll be... not an elegy Please return to me upon your shield or bended knee Your brave words now carry me Believe these horrors I have seen can be but a reverie A battle cry they'll be... not an elegy
