Birth of a Hero

Lyrics

He was a young boy About to be a man She loved him so Please, don't go Down on his knees The blade passed with ease Shoulder to shoulder As it pierces her heart Out in the fields The boy becomes a man Taste of blood in his throat Feel of death on his hands He shall fall on this dark And misty night As he falls he hears His loved one cry Birth of a hero Death of a man She'll never understand Why he left her hand He was a young boy And she loved him so She watched the sun set And longed for his journey home Flags fly low The blade cut deep Now she must bear the wounds That bleed memories Birth of a hero Death of a man She'll never understand Why he left her hand Birth of a hero Death of a man She'll never understand Why he left her hand Birth of a hero Death of a man She'll never understand Why he left her hand Birth of a hero Death of a man She'll never understand Why he left her hand Birth of a hero Birth of a hero Birth of a hero Death of a man
