Ironsword - Crown Of Iron lyrics

There was a time when by the axe we ruled And Aquilonia was at our feet We were men before we were kings That never knew the word defeat Crown of iron Crown of iron There is a time the burden drags ever on Adders conspire betrayal schemes A toast with wine to all the battles fought Let others dream imperial dreams Crown of iron Crown of iron Now we look back with sadness in our eyes Adventure and lust are memories past Glory days are over, honour is what we've kept Thus to die free at last There comes a time of great weariness And the throne room becomes a cage Upon our brows the crowns cease to sparkle We're fat, bald and bent with age (Repeat chorus)
