[bodytext] => A scout delivers the dreadful news an army seen to the north but nobody knows whose a young princess just been made a queen now plunged into chaos and a war she'd never dream the battle was short only few survive my sister taken, exhausted but alive the terror of foreign man exposed our weakness my sister with no army young and keepless fled into exile nor able nor willing how can they justify unjustified killing your atrocity, your crime will not travel far history will define who we really are clear the land of infecting peasants restore the rightful queen and her pheasants snipers positioned on the hill crossbows cocked ready for the kill soldiers poised tight in ranks knights on horses cover their flanks shields tighten ready to barge swords drawn ready to charge the general rides, OUR COUNTRY YOURS TO DEFEND all raise their pride, OURS UNTIL THE END. the bugle sounds the charge is on. we charge, 3000 strong spears perfect silver straight and long they have to pay, they must be made to pay they won't live to fight another day blood hacking through the skies pumping adrenalin through my eyes lost my head for a time the drummer boy was only 9 soldiers retreat, bowman fled trebuchet buckled........the king is dead. the women stand together each sad and cried as they remember the men who bravely fought and died each man an honored grave for their sacrifice their life they gave we fought for not riches nor glory but for our brothers and freedom for that alone is a story no one gives up.
