Wings of Steel Lyrics by Ancient Empire

When Empires Fall

2014

I face the demons in my mind
As we fly on through the night
And whisper a prayer for my last day
Beneath the moon and dim starlight
Full speed ahead as we draw closer
I feel my pulse begin to race
For God and country I will kill and die
The enemy's life I will take
In the calm before the storm
We sit in silence, each man on his own
I close my eyes and I see my destiny
Is it agony and pain?
I hear my thoughts over the engines
On our way to victory!
In the calm before the storm
All is quiet in the skies
As we reach our destination
All guns ablaze, we join the fight
Wings of steel, on the attack
Death is flying through the air
Wings of steel, fire from above
Screaming out a final prayer
Man-made lightning, it rips the night
War birds of prey, in lethal flight
As the bombs scar the earth below
Wounded planes drop from the sky
A driving rain of flesh and bone
I set the sights for one last try
Target destroyed, we turn to leave
As our wings get blown away
The enemy's guns have hit their mark
Our sacrifice won't be in vain
In the chaos we are lost
Victory is won but at what cost?
