Lyrics (unofficial)

[rev. July 16, 2013]

Stay a little longer as days grow stronger
I'm a soldier in the cause of the merciful and holy wars
I fight for the right side, I fight to save my hide

Stay a little more as the winter starts to thaw
I'm a servant of the king and he might do anything
I always let him rule me, never let him fool me

And I try to be brave, but I should've known
That the lady in the dream wouldn't leave me alone

Live a little lighter as the mornings glow brighter
I'm a priest upon a hill closing in for the kill
I preach to the lying man, I reach out to the dying man

Try to be brave, but I should've known
That the lady in the dream wouldn't leave me alone
