Courage Under Fire
"Bones ache yet heart sings"
A courage that is hidden in strings
A drip of blood on the ground makes a stain
That rouses the soul of its captain
In a savage war for glory you may bleed
But your blood casts the might of your seed
For the voice of your heart makes you strong
To fight for the right where you belong
Like a light of amber in mist of dark
That blurs the eyes of darkness with its spark
Your blood that drips makes you alive
So in darkest of your time, you may survive
