Emilie Autumn - By the Sword lyrics

Days of old, I tell my restless mind Searching mountains, fields And meadows green What is it my heart can hope to find? All I long for I have never seen Tales of glory written in the dust Tapestries of deepest purple gold Legends carved in stone tell me I must Journey through the mist and bitter cold But in this brotherhood I still believe And for the ones we've lost my soul will grieve Yet through the world alone I wander for I know somewhere I will find my brothers, by the sword I swear In my memory awakening Like a dream too sweet to cast away Shadows of the past begin to sing Calling out to me in their gallant way Come away with us brother in arms Through the seas of silver, fields of gold Join us as we battle those who harm And fight with valor as in days of old But in this brotherhood I still believe And for the ones we've lost my soul will grieve Yet through the world alone I wander for I know somewhere I will find my brothers, by the sword I swear Seeking in the corners of the earth My companions I have never known Blindly running forth, is honor worth Endless hours of silence spent alone? But in this brotherhood I still believe And for the ones we've lost my soul will grieve Yet through the world alone I wander for I know somewhere I will find my brothers, by the sword I swear Rescue damsels fine and maidens fair Free the noble who have done no wrong Though it seems the world may little care Some are left that to the round belong But in this brotherhood we still believe And for the ones we've lost our souls will grieve Yet through the world alone we wander for we know somewhere We will find our brothers, by the sword we swear By the sword I swear I will find my brothers, I will find my sisters I will find my brothers, I will find my sisters By the sword I swear
