Crystallion - Sole Survivors in Ligny lyrics

Now he is leaving and we're on our own Soldiers of Prussia will conquer the throne From the windmill of Brye I will see how they die And when Europe is freed yeah the Frenchmen will bleed Ney cannot help him he's too far away Is this the reason for Napoleon's delay Now they move to attack, no mistake we must make For our freedom we fight, strike with all of our might I - hear the canons from afar Mine - is Ligny and Quatre Bras The Prussian troops are giving way - no retreat They must face their defeat Before the night falls we will be - we will be Sole survivors in Ligny His own intervention will not save their lives Ligny's on fire, more artillery arrives One last counter-attack we have now driven back It's Gerard and the Guard who are hitting them hard Die - for a realm that's doomed to fail I - am the one that they will hail The Prussian troops are giving way - no retreat They must face their defeat Before the night falls we will be - we will be Sole survivors in Ligny A shot at his horse sent him down to the ground Buried by his own beast in the mud Injured and reeling he's borne from the field Their offensive now under control
