[Verse 1]
We buried our sons, we turned and fled
No growing old, the glorious dead
But we came back because one man said
"Now on the beaches, the blood runs red"
[Verse 2]
I faced them down, the only one
I stood alone and warned the day would come
But they were wrong; appeasers, every one
And not for the last time, we all stand alone
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I watch the sun move away
As I embrace the night
And my black dog has its day
For six long yеars, you shall not pass
Barbarians at the gates
We will ovеrcome
[Chorus]
Here I sit in a serenade of glory
Naked by the throne of kings
You sowed the wind
And now you reap the whirlwind
Before the dawn, the darkest hour
We buried our sons, we turned and fled
No growing old, the glorious dead
But we came back because one man said
"Now on the beaches, the blood runs red"
[Verse 2]
I faced them down, the only one
I stood alone and warned the day would come
But they were wrong; appeasers, every one
And not for the last time, we all stand alone
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I watch the sun move away
As I embrace the night
And my black dog has its day
For six long yеars, you shall not pass
Barbarians at the gates
We will ovеrcome
[Chorus]
Here I sit in a serenade of glory
Naked by the throne of kings
You sowed the wind
And now you reap the whirlwind
Before the dawn, the darkest hour
