Lyrics:
Verse 1:
In the fields where the rivers ran dry
I was born ’neath a shattered sky
With a banner once bright, now torn and frayed
I march where the sunlight fades
Through the winds of the past I tread
Where the ghosts of our fathers bled
I hear the songs of a kingdom lost
Paid in blood, the ultimate cost
Pre-Chorus 1:
But I won’t fall, though the world is cold
For the truth still burns in me
A soldier of a dying age
I’ll fight for history
Chorus:
I am the soldier of a dying nation
One voice in the storm’s deflation
Though the kingdom falls, I’ll carry the flame
Through the ashes, they’ll know my name!
A soldier of a broken dream
Yet I’ll fight for what could have been!
Verse 2:
Once the hills echoed with cheers of war
Now they speak of a time no more
But a whisper still lingers in the air
Of a future we might yet share
I walk the line between life and death
With the fire of freedom on my breath
Though the battle may seem in vain
I’ll endure through the endless rain
Pre-Chorus 2:
Though shadows rise, I see the light
A dawn that waits for me
A soldier of the fading dawn
Still chasing victory
Chorus:
I am the soldier of a dying nation
One voice in the storm’s deflation
Though the kingdom falls, I’ll carry the flame
Through the ashes, they’ll know my name!
A soldier of a broken dream
Yet I’ll fight for what could have been!
Bridge:
And though the walls are falling down
I’ll wear this battle-scarred crown
For every soul that stood and bled
For every tear, for every dread
The echoes of our past remain
And I will sing through every pain
For we are more than dust and bone
In our hearts, we still have a home
Chorus:
I am the soldier of a dying nation
One voice in the storm’s deflation
Though the kingdom falls, I’ll carry the flame
Through the ashes, they’ll know my name!
A soldier of a broken dream
Yet I’ll fight for what could have been!
Verse 3:
The world may crumble, kingdoms fall
But still I stand, defying all
The sun will rise on a future bright
For a soldier who fights the night
Pre-Chorus 3:
Though all seems lost, I still will stand
With the strength of all before
A soldier of a shattered land
I’ll rise forevermore!
Chorus:
I am the soldier of a dying nation
One voice in the storm’s deflation
Though the kingdom falls, I’ll carry the flame
Through the ashes, they’ll know my name!
A soldier of a broken dream
Yet I’ll fight for what could have been!
Chorus:
I am the soldier of a dying nation
One voice in the storm’s deflation
Though the kingdom falls, I’ll carry the flame
Through the ashes, they’ll know my name!
A soldier of a broken dream
Yet I’ll fight for what could have been!
