[Verse 1]
By dawn's early light
A terrifying sight lay revealed
Where there once had been a vale of green
Now lay destruction
[Pre-Chorus 1]
The legend told of the scene of a massacre
Eleven thousand young brave hearts were lost
Draped in the flags of their fathers they fought and fell
Before the fading light said farewell
[Chorus]
The blood ran deep
Into the virgin soil
Their blood ran deep
Common blood and royal
[Verse 2]
They'd marched south to war
With confidence and Rome on their side
While the nobles on the frontline stood proud
Too soon they would die
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Among the bodies of pikemen and reavers
Lay the remnants of the great king himself
Whose sovereign blood joined a flowing red river
Now at one with his subjects to rest
[Chorus]
The blood ran deep
Into the virgin soil
Their blood ran deep
Common blood and royal
[Verse 3]
In lands to the north
One day in September is marked
By a clash so ferocious
The very earth itself felt the scar
[Pre-Chorus 1]
The legend told of the scene of a massacre
Eleven thousand young brave hearts were lost
Draped in the flags of their fathers they fought and fell
Before the fading light said farewell
[Chorus]
The blood ran deep
Into the virgin soil
Their blood ran deep
Common blood and royal
[Outro]
The blood ran deep
The blood ran deep
Common blood and royal
