Battlegrounds - Live

Some thousand years been counted down
 Kings and queens have lost their crowns
 Live by the sword and you're gonna die
 By the sword
 Empires built on broken bones
 Conquerors carved their names in stone
 Where are they now everything's
 Withered away
 
 They have fallen one by one
 Building castles to the sun
 Only ruins can be found
 On battlegrounds
 All their glory days are gone
 So much pain but nothing's won
 Only ruins can be found
 On battlegrounds
 We fight for land that will be here
 Long, long after we've disappeared
 More wanting more that's just
 The way of the world
 The winner writes the history books
 The pain and blood is overlooked
 Written in ways so it will suite their own game
 They have fallen one by one
 Building castles to the sun
 Only ruins can be found
 On battlegrounds
 All their glory days are gone
 So much pain but nothing's won
 Only ruins can be found
 On battlegrounds
 Some thousand years been counted down
 Kings and queens have lost their crowns
