Peter Tägtgren - Winged Hussars lyrics

When the winged hussars arrived [Verse] A cry for help in time of need, await relief from holy league 60 days of siege, outnumbered and weak Sent a message to the sky, wounded soldiers left to die Will they hold the wall or will the city fall [Pre-Chorus] Dedication Dedication They're outnumbered 15 to one And the battle's begun [Chorus] Then the winged hussars arrived Coming down the mountainside Then the winged hussars arrived Coming down they turned the tide [Verse] As the days are pa**ing by and as the dead are piling high No escape and no salvation Trenches to explosive halls are buried deep beneath the walls Plant the charges there and watch the city fear [Pre-Chorus] Desperation Desperation It's a desperate race against the mine And a race against time [Chorus] Then the winged hussars arrived Coming down the mountainside Then the winged hussars arrived Coming down they turned the tide [Bridge] Cannonballs are coming down from the sky Janissaries are you ready to die? We will seek our vengeance eye for an eye You'll be stopped upon the steps of our gate On this field you're only facing our hate But back home the sultan's sealing your fate [Guitar Solo] [Pre-Chorus] That's the night Vienna was freed We made the enemy bleed! [Chorus] Then the winged hussars arrived Coming down the mountainside Then the winged hussars arrived Coming down they turned the tide [Outro] Storm clouds. fire and steel d**h from above make their enemy kneel We remember In September Then the winged hussars arrived
