Ironclad in the rolled, cold steel of twilight,
Saint George on his charger nears the fight,
Each man stands alone, his time is finite,
So brace for a leap of faith tonight,
The city's gripped, as a demon eats their children raw,
A winged, plague-like behemoth, tooth and claw...
Then the dragon came down to the deafening sound,
Burning eyes like the winter sun,
And such a terror unwound to this hell-bound requiem,
The Beast, a ravenous hound on the hunting ground,
Breathes fire to the funeral drums,
Now there's a dragon in town and he won't back down again.
Enchained and proclaimed his Bride of Midnight,
Fear drenched by the Moon, robe sheer to light,
Insane, inhumane, condemned to this plight,
The Day came, she was named his sacrifice,
A faithless nation of heathens, "One true God" said George,
"Be my strength in believing, shield and sword..."
Then the dragon came down to the deafening sound,
Burning eyes like the winter sun,
And such a terror unwound to this hell-bound requiem,
The Beast, a ravenous hound on the hunting ground,
Breathes fire to the funeral drums,
Now there's a dragon in town and he won't back down again...
"There's a dragon in town and he won't back down" I said...
No he will never back down 'till the whole damned town is dead...
"You become true believers and I will slay this scourge,
You can trust the redeemer and my word..."
Then the dragon came down to the deafening sound,
Burning eyes like the winter sun,
And such a terror unwound to this hell-bound requiem,
The Beast, a ravenous hound on the hunting ground,
Falls hard on the funeral drums,
There was a dragon in town but he won't come down again...
"There was a dragon in town but he won't come down" I said...
No he will never come down for the dragon in town... is dead.
