Elvenking - The losers ball

I was told by my Grandma'
Many years ago, I was just a child
"Boy, go and grow as an honest man
Look on what you've done with pride!"

The years have passed I'm a normal lad
I won't be named in school treatises
But looking back on what I've done
Yes, there's a glimpse of pride!

The losers' ball - Dance with me
to the sound of the fiddle
For the ones who fall - Like a cloudless
sky reflected in a billow
Learn a new step for each new Babylon
(build the city of lies and despair)

If you have time send a message
To every form of human life
"Hey out there if someone listens
This way we won't survive!"

We'll be drawn in arrogance
Hanged by the noose of greed
A new religion of violence
A bible of bad deeds

The losers' ball - Dance with me
to the sound of the fiddle
For the ones who fall - Like a cloudless
sky reflected in a billow
Learn a new step for each new Babylon
(build the city of lies-lust-despair)

This song proves how much I've changed. Two years ago, I would have said this song sucks. Now this is one of my favorites. I only wish it was longer. Like three minutes longer.

@Wulfhimself - I love the clapping! It adds a "folkish" feel! lol

[Paganbeliever]

@WingedFlames Agreed, it sounds more 16th century ball-ish.. I just wish it was a longer text. This is by far their best song

[Paganbeliever]

@xLightLordx I agree with you, though 10 months later I wish to comment on this. it should definetly be longer, because this is one of the most beautiful songs ever
