THE MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP
"Knight Of The Dead"

I lived a long time ago
Followed no leader or lordships
I saw them rise, I saw them fall
Kingdoms coming and going
Flames and fire burning higher

I've been the king's enemy
Given the oath to my saviour
Swore I would last, never give in
Standing in honour and faith
Flames and fire burning higher

[Chorus:]
Sentence me, knight of the dead
Right now before I'm losing my head
Sentence me, knight of the dead
Or I'll turn into ash instead

Scream, don't you hold it back
Come with me and join the brotherhood
Take from the rich, give to the poor
Dangerous times never look too good
Flames and fire burning higher

[Chorus:]
Sentence me, knight of the dead
Right now before I'm losing my head
Sentence me, knight of the dead
Or I'll turn into ash instead

I lived a long time ago
Followed no leader or lordships
I saw them rise, I saw them fall
Kingdoms coming and going
Flames and fire burning higher

[Chorus:]
Sentence me, knight of the dead
Right now before I'm losing my head
Sentence me, knight of the dead
Or I'll turn into ash instead
Sentence me, knight of the dead
Right now before I'm losing my head
Sentence me, knight of the dead
Or I'll turn into ash instead
