The Sword Against the Flame
Dragons are not mythical
One lives within each man
One against the other,
Killing if he can
But the battle's never equal
The Sword against the Flame
The man against his dragon
Except they are the same
And songs are sang of valor
Of men that hold no fear
And men that no honor
Whose dragons persevered
In every tale on every tongue,
There lives the noblest knight
Paired besides his wicked beast,
Itching for a bite
One against the other,
Killing if he can
A tale of blood and steel
As there is in every man.
