lyrics

there's water on the frozen floor
my bones break to the chill
and there's urine mixed with dreams of death
in the corner of my cell
their keys are clanking down the hall
and they're asking me for names
but i'll fight your queen and empire until my dying day

night and day have lost all sense
this cage is dim and grey
as memories of family begin to fade away
again they send their man in black
with instruments of pain
but i'll fight your queen and empire until my dying day

my consciousness has left me
as he leaves and slams the door
and i lie in bloody victory upon their stonework floor
for the freedom of my people it's a paltry price to pay
and i'll fight your queen and empire until my dying day

my shackles drag on cobblestone
they sing a rattling tune
the hall drifts by on either side
my time is coming soon
i smile, guilty of their charges
no i wasn't framed
and i'll fight your queen and empire until my dying day

the sunlight like a stranger burns
i'm forced to shut my eyes
as they drag by broken body to
the place of my demise
the sneering jeering crowd all roars
the gallows seal my fame
but i'll fight your queen and empire until my dying day
