These Starry Stairs
Upon these starry stairs
The blood of giants were spilled
The bones of heroes were broken
The carcasses of greatness decayed
The vultures of time had feasted
The blood of giants were spilled
The bones of heroes were broken
The carcasses of greatness decayed
The vultures of time had feasted
This is the pathway into glory
This is only road which offers immortality
War, my friend, is the currency
With which peace is bought down the ages
Death is the only means
A full life is lived
The pride of the strong is a curse
The fear of the cowards is their doom
This is only road which offers immortality
War, my friend, is the currency
With which peace is bought down the ages
Death is the only means
A full life is lived
The pride of the strong is a curse
The fear of the cowards is their doom
The path of glory is never rosy
If you want to live on
Long after you are gone
Do not be afraid of death when you climb
For death is scared of anyone who dare
To climb these starry stairs of glory
If you want to live on
Long after you are gone
Do not be afraid of death when you climb
For death is scared of anyone who dare
To climb these starry stairs of glory
