Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] While Europe speak of peace, all other battles cease There's a man who aims for more than he can reach (Blood) All over (Prague) On fire (Burn) All of Bohemia set ablaze Stand on their own [Pre-Chorus 1] The road to the city has been blocked Denied to enter the gates Though they tried When Prague was called to arms They fought them on the bridge Their freedom was at stake [Chorus] Stand and fight, the city is burning Königsmarck lost, stopped him at Karluv Most Stained by blood, their brothers die side by side Did what they could Died where they stood [Verse 2] Their city has been besieged, all hell on Prague unleashed As the cannons crush the walls, the city shakes (Fear) is spreading (Hate) increasing (Death) and pain is all that Sweden brought Rise and strike back [Pre-Chorus 2] The walls of the city's been breached, reclaimed On that very night, unsustained They did it on their own They fought them on the bridge Their freedom was at stake [Chorus] Stand and fight, the city is burning Königsmarck lost, stopped him at Karluv Most Stained by blood, their brothers die side by side Did what they could Died where they stood [Bridge] Unconquered city on Vltavas shore Start of the conflict and end of the war Unconquered city on Vltavas shore Is protected by its people And thirty years ago the war begun It has returned to where it started [Guitar Solo] [Pre-Chorus 1] The road to the city has been blocked Denied to enter the gates Though they tried When Prague was called to arms They fought them on the bridge Their freedom was at stake [Chorus] Stand and fight, the city is burning Königsmarck lost, stopped him at Karluv Most Stained by blood, their brothers die side by side Did what they could Died where they stood Stand and fight, the city is burning Königsmarck lost, stopped him at Karluv Most Stained by blood, their brothers die side by side Did what they could Died where they stood
