Lyrics

0:33As a young boy chasing dragons

0:35With your wooden sword so mighty

0:38You're St. George or you're David

0:40And you always killed the beast

0:42Times change very quickly

0:44And you had to grow up early

0:46A house in smoking ruins

0:48And the bodies at your feet

0:51You'll die as you lived

0:52In the flash of the blade

0:55(In a corner forgotten away)

0:59You lived for the touch

1:01For the feel of the steel

1:03(One man, and his honor)

1:25The smell of resigned leather

1:26The sticky iron mask

1:29As you cut and thrust and parried

1:31At the fencing master's call

1:33He taught you all he knew

1:35To fear no mortal man

1:37And now you'll wreak your vengeance

1:39On the screams of evil men

1:42You'll die as you lived

1:43In the flash of the blade

1:46(In a corner forgotten away)

1:50You lived for the touch

1:51For the feel of the steel

1:54(One man, and his honor)

3:06You'll die as you lived

3:08In the flash of the blade

3:11(In a corner forgotten away)

3:15You lived for the touch

3:17For the feel of the steel

3:19(One man, and his honor)

3:23You'll die as you lived

3:25In the flash of the blade

3:28(In a corner forgotten away)

3:32You lived for the touch

3:33For the feel of the steel

3:36(One man, and his honor)

As a young boy chasing dragons
With your wooden sword so mighty
You're St. George or you're David
And you always killed the beast
Times change very quickly
And you had to grow up early
A house in smoking ruins
And the bodies at your feet
You'll die as you lived
In the flash of the blade
(In a corner forgotten away)
You lived for the touch
For the feel of the steel
(One man, and his honor)
The smell of resigned leather
The sticky iron mask
As you cut and thrust and parried
At the fencing master's call
He taught you all he knew
To fear no mortal man
And now you'll wreak your vengeance
On the screams of evil men
You'll die as you lived
In the flash of the blade
(In a corner forgotten away)
You lived for the touch
For the feel of the steel
(One man, and his honor)
You'll die as you lived
In the flash of the blade
(In a corner forgotten away)
You lived for the touch
For the feel of the steel
(One man, and his honor)
You'll die as you lived
In the flash of the blade
(In a corner forgotten away)
You lived for the touch
For the feel of the steel
(One man, and his honor)
