  • Sinners, Monks and Thieves all share the air we breathe
    Smoke, Swords and Fire, bravemans true desire
    For free men must fight tonight all in the glory of war
    We sit in waiting every mile on Hadrian's Wall
    With steel dirt and sand
    We all have stake in the land
    For many will not see
    Morning sun rising, flags on the horizon
    Thus begins the battle of Hadrian's Wall
    Tonight they will come, 4,000 chariots strong
    River of red flowing down, all in the name of Galaman's crown
    For many will not see
    Morning sun rising

    Over the horizon
    Lead by arrows
    And the release of the dragon
    Blood rivers flowing
    Man die without knowing
    We fight as legions
    Against a crown of treason
    On Hadrian's Wall
    Oh in the morning, I rise
    Never thought I'd see a morning sun rise
    Never thought I'd live to see another day
    On Hadrian's Wall Writer/s: GLENN WILLIAM HUGHES, JOE BONAMASSA, KEVIN SHIRLEY
