Wish Rock Band - Battle Mountain Lyrics

A story is told of when the world began
And how men were made with sparks of magic
As years go by in jealous rage
The gods destroy all they have made
Mortal man will taste revenge today
Live or die on Battle Mountain
At the break of dawn
The men took up their swords
And their shields and armour
To fight incredible odds
Against the Gods
There's a place in the Lost valley of the Kings
A place of war that's known as Battle Mountain
Where immortal gods met man
And they made their final stand
And the sound of a hundred thousand cries still
Echo through the land
They rode away from home
Unsure of ever coming back
Against Olympians how could they survive
Now the tension mounts and arrows fly
And lightning bolts fall from the sky
Hoping passion to be free is enough to turn the tide
There's a place in the lost valley of the Kings
A place of war that's known as Battle Mountain
Where immortal gods met man
And they made their final stand
And the sound of a hundred thousand cries still
Echo through the land
A war was fought some time was bought for
The many brave men who died
But when the fight was done
The gods had won
But hope was still alive
We sing the memory
Of those courageous men
We are descendants of their sons
Like sand passes through the hourglass
The gods disappeared into the past
The battle was lost but the war was won
With the spirit that was forged on Battle mountain
In the Valley of the Kings
A place of war that's known as Battle Mountain
Where immortal gods met man
And they made their final stand
And the sound of a hundred thousand cries still
Echos through the land
