We Die Together

Tonight they say is The Final Battle
A silence profound does rattle
From a hundred men away
I am bound to you without sway

So if we die, we die together

Stepped out the door on a winding road
Seeking glory, a seat in the board
Holding a locket and a letter
As the only home ward tether

So if we mourn, we mourn together

Many came and many left
Along the days and nights bereft
Some that called me brother
We are still together

So if we die, we die together.

We ate the mountains and drank the seas
We lit the caves and moved debris
We all miss our mothers
We are still together

So if we die, we die together.

I see the fire that swallowed your King
He chose merchants’ fights over soldier rings
So much will burn tonight
Under the starry light

So if we burn, we burn together.

You are my father, captain and king
Each arrow wound, each sword swing
Noble in death, glory in loss
Hardened by icy winds and ocean toss

So if we drown, we drown together.
If we mourn, we mourn together.
If we burn, we burn together.
If we die, we die together..
