Songtext von Battlegrounds

Some thousand years been counted down Kings and queens have lost their crowns Live by the sword and you're gonna die By the sword Empires built on broken bones Conquerors carved their names in stone Where are they now everything's Withered away They have fallen one by one Building castles to the sun Only ruins can be found On battlegrounds All their glory days are gone So much pain but nothing's won Only ruins can be found On battlegrounds We fight for land that will be here Long, long after we've disappeared More wanting more that's just The way of the world The winner writes the history books The pain and blood is overlooked Written in ways so it will suite their own game They have fallen one by one Building castles to the sun Only ruins can be found On battlegrounds All their glory days are gone So much pain but nothing's won Only ruins can be found On battlegrounds Some thousand years been counted down Kings and queens have lost their crowns
