Adamantine - Hope For The Dying

Pick up your armor

You can survive this

Don’t run for cover

You can withstand

Oppose the masses

And show your strength

We can survive this

We can withstand

I hear the trumpets sound

The sky is closing in

The wind carries the clouds

Providing darkness

And as the light slowly slips away I can feel the earth tremble

I can feel it shake

I slowly open my eyes — thoughts are grim

A thousand warriors — sword in hand

Is this the end of me

Should I martyr and die

Or is it time to change sides

Oh how can it be

I feel the weight of a blade in my hand

The sun peeks through the clouds

A blinding reflection

Oh I am but one man

Surely I cannot prevail

What power could this be

Enough to blind an entire army

Slain — where once 1000 warriors stood 1000 bodies now lay

Unscathed — I remain standing

My only injury the heat from the blade
