Darkest Knight (2002)



Lonely is the Knight
When all isn't right
Time again he saves the day
Now watch him fade away
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Dragons and fire is his lust
Kings and queens damned him to fail
In the mightiest danger he prevails
Riding on the storm
The light of diversity
Lord of the battlefield
What has become of me
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Sword and shield as they rust
Fallen lords of the realm
In Hell forever dwell
No masters to teach none at all
For the great knights did fall
Sing songs of deeds and glory
But none of them are for me
