Red Dawn
Dawnfall Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When blood splits next day red dawn appears
Lake of sin boils when the battle begins
And we fight forever to bring back the light
No one escape from punishment of dark

Red dawn the fight will go on
Evil gets closer but our swords are drown
Red dawn the final of war
Only the heroes can stand after all

Magicians rested and spells memorized
Bards are protected and singing their song
They all wait their leader to unleash the war
Excite of war roaming in veins of 'em all
Allies from the east coast have come to our aid
Cost of the friendship can never be paid
Power of evil depends of betray
But honour and pride are the graces we have

Red dawn the fight will go on
Evil gets closer but our swords are drown




Red dawn the final of war
Only the heroes can stand after all
