Forced into betrayal of God and country By a despot clad in vengeance A self-made enemy A noble man Beheaded at dawn By a King's swift justice The widow abandons wealth To take up the axe and anchor "Cutthroats and warriors! Men of the sea! Paint the ships as the dark of night. The Black Fleet sails!" "You've taken my heart; I'll take your Kingdom as pay" Culling the herd of aristocrats The cowards who condemned true love Their corpses float endlessly Their heads mounted to the masts "Leave some alive," she said, "to carry a message home. Tell your masters of this execution At the hands of the Lioness of Brittany!" If you see the red sails on the horizon The Lioness has come for your head 13 years of revenge A campaign promised by death And for all the blood and pride What was gained? This rage will never subside Carried forever by the sea winds The will of a blackened soul Destroyed by devotion Lost in storming seas Drowning grief with so much scorn Which way is up? Which way is home? She's never looking back Forever lost at sea 13 years of revenge A campaign promised by death And for all the blood and pride What was gained? This rage will never subside Carried forever by the sea winds The will of a blackened soul Destroyed by devotion Which way is up? Which way is home?
