Lyrics
Here we hold behind our sacred walls,
the last remaining chosen for the cause
In soul and mind all cleansed and purified,
in god we pray and rest our final hopes
The darkness and light
The left path or the right
The principles of flesh
All yield to the divine
We ‘re children of the damned, the pilgrims in a foreign land
Condemned to reincarnate in cycles of this world’s decay
Until the time will come, when all the things become undone
And spirits will ascend the angels sing their requiem
In darkness and light
The left path or the right
The principles of flesh
All yield to the divine
On the break of dawn the tyrant’s host will storm the gates
No fight for survival we ‘re prepared to meet our fate
The torches burning silently and light the moonless night
The brothers will defend our faith
we’ll stand and die side by side
The end draws near we have surrendered arms,
the last of strongholds falling to their hands
Acrid smoke and fire fill the skies,
a martyr pyre yet no one hears the cries
We ‘re children of the damned, the pilgrims in a foreign land
Condemned to reincarnate in cycles of this world’s decay
Until the time will come, when all the things become undone
And spirits will ascend, in Montsegur again…
We ‘re children of the damned, the pilgrims in a foreign land
Condemned to reincarnate in cycles of this world’s decay
Until the time will come, when all the things become undone
And spirits will ascend the angels sing their requiem
