Not While I Draw Breath

from When Myth and History Merged into Mystery by Frost Giant

lyrics

Verse

Will you stand with me? Fight and die if need be?
Hold against the hordes until the last man falls?
Will you sacrifice all you have gained in life?
Reject your comfort for a greater end?
Stand together, never waver
Brave in the face of overwhelming odds
For our future, and for freedom,
We unite in liberty, or death.

Chorus:

The evil stirs from its sleep, and no one will be safe from its reach
For we shall fight to be free, and never will we bend our knee

Verse:

Forever clawing, fight like a demon
Taking it to the very bitter end
Swords are drawing, battle lines forming
Storm clouds are churning, soon there will be war
The earth will be fed with blood,
And the skies will weep unto the dead
Never give up, never back down
We unite in liberty or death

Chorus:

Tonight, we lay down our lives in the path of those who would oppress
And enslave us to their god, and trod us under till we are no more.

Bridge:

Not while I draw breath, will I submit, will I accept.
Not while I draw breath, will I bow down, nor will I live with empty regret.

Now feel the sting of a thousand swords, vanquish the horde, drive them away
To the darkness from whence they came, obliterate, they are no more
Overwhelm them all take what is ours
Crush the wretched enemy
Bring victory to our hearth and home.
