At Break of Dawn

Far away over mountains and hills
A small group of scoundrels counting their kills
When they finally went home
Death came in the night
They lost the fight

Sailing for so many years
When they were gone someone came
Nothing was left
Every house was burned down
All trace of them gone like the wind

At break of dawn the fire we saw was burning still
At break of dawn the hunt has begun by the captain's will
Stand up and fight, it never was right
The enemy will be gone
At break of dawn the fire burned hard
Burning still

Journey out to the sea
Searching for anyone who might have seen
Who dared to come in to a town
To steal and kill
Repent it we will

Sailing for so many years
When they were gone someone came
Nothing was left
Every house was burned down
All trace of them gone like the wind

At break of dawn the fire we saw was burning still
At break of dawn the hunt has begun by the captain's will
Stand up and fight, it never was right
The enemy will be gone
At break of dawn the fire burned hard
Burning still

Whispers of all that went down
Nobody knows
Was it men of the crown
But soon they'll fear the man in the dark
Sticking his sword into enemies' hearts

Sailing for so many years
When they were gone someone came
Nothing was left
Every house was burned down
All trace of them gone like the wind

At break of dawn the fire we saw was burning still (burning still)
At break of dawn the hunt has begun by the captain's will
(By the captain's will)
Stand up and fight, it never was right
The enemy will be gone (gone)
At break of dawn the fire burned hard
Burning still
