Diamond Head - Knight of the Swords lyrics

A jewelled sceptre plucked by order to serve their cause

To vanquish the swords of chaos and tip the scales again

The last of noble blood you know time must take its course

You blood red robe will never feel the same

For beyond the sea of fire

To embrace a fate you've known

To split the heart of destiny

Up to the bitter throne

Knight of the swords

Knight of the swords

Knight of the swords

Knight of the swords

At first his thirst for vengeance fuelled his bitter heart

As he scaled through time and beyond the learning tree

Ghostly ships trapped in mystic bands summon to play

Sorcerer of chain, come we'll set you free

For beyond the sea of fire

To where pain can call her home

To stir the rock of destiny

Up to the bitter throne

Knight of the swords

Knight of the swords

Knight of the swords

Knight of the swords

The curse of a cause

Knight of the swords

The knoght of the swords

A tear does fill this man

So beyond the sea of fire she calls, she calls

For beyond the sea of fire

And above the heart of man

To stir the rock alacrity

And strike her bonds again

Knight of the swords

Knight of the swords

Knight of the swords

Knight of the swords

The curse of the swords

Knight of the swords

The knight of the swords
