Last Man of Honour Lyrics


I witness the end of the old ways

I face the dawn of the modern age

My fathers cry beyond the grave

My culture dies I feel their rage

On the grim altar of progress

All I held dear is turned to dust

The meaning of honour to be lost

Corruption is king and bow we must

Bow we must

Battle no longer a matter of honour

War has become a faceless industry

Heritage no longer has any value

There is no more use for chivalry

Yet I shall not bow, I shall fight

For all that I believe to be right

I gather men who still are true

To the lofty world once we knew

Once we knew

(chorus)

Last man of honour, standing with pride

Strong and defiant, steel by my side

My cause may be hopeless and though I shall fall

I die with honour, gallant and tall

Polish my blade and saddle my steed

One more time into battle I ride

The new order shall face my wrath

For our blood, our honour, our pride

I meet the enemy of the field of woe

Long I stand against a stronger foe

Until at last my blade is shattered

And I must fall, torn and battered

Torn and battered

(chorus)
