The Dragon Lies Bleeding Lyrics
Ride through the valley in thunder and rain
The battle is raging, redeem this domain
The Castle of Eden lies silent above
Darkness surround us away we must go
I look through the eyes of the world
I see there's a stranger among us
Awaiting a sign from above
To conquer the power asnd the glory
Enter the battle, our will to enchain
Bringing us forward, defeating the pain
Into the meeting with swords made of steel
Standing together our seacret revealed
I look through theeyes of the world
I know who's the stranger among us
Awaiting a sign from above
To conquer the power and the glory
<B>CHORUS:</b>
Come across tho the promised land
Close your eyes, I will take your hand
Through the river of steel we go
When the dragon lies bleeding
<b>(x2)</b>
Above the glory we carry on, now the time has come to return back home
The setting sun illuminates the dead the battle field is shining red
Silent lies Eden ontop of the moor
Fighting with horor protecting our lord
The last lone survivor lies bleeding, I kneel
Into his heart I settle the steel
I look through the eyes of the world
There is no stranger among us
Awaiting a sign from above to conquer the power and the glory
<b>CHORUS x2</b>
The battle is raging, redeem this domain
The Castle of Eden lies silent above
Darkness surround us away we must go
I see there's a stranger among us
Awaiting a sign from above
To conquer the power asnd the glory
Bringing us forward, defeating the pain
Into the meeting with swords made of steel
Standing together our seacret revealed
I know who's the stranger among us
Awaiting a sign from above
To conquer the power and the glory
Come across tho the promised land
Close your eyes, I will take your hand
Through the river of steel we go
When the dragon lies bleeding
<b>(x2)</b>
The setting sun illuminates the dead the battle field is shining red
Fighting with horor protecting our lord
The last lone survivor lies bleeding, I kneel
Into his heart I settle the steel
There is no stranger among us
Awaiting a sign from above to conquer the power and the glory

i get the feeling the song is more about taking back land then anything "The battle is raging, redeem this domain" and "Above the glory we carry on, now the time has come to return back home" makes me think they are fighting for land that was takin from them.
as for the "dragon" thats a metaphor for the obbosing army. a dragon is something that (if still exist/ever exist) are extremely hard to defeat and would take alot of people dieing to achieve it. u kno its a metaphor cuz the only time they mention a dragon is when they say "the dragon lies bleeding". they also say "through the river of steel well go" and i kno they didnt walk through a literal river of steel.
One of Hammerfall's greatest songs I believe, these guys are awesome!!
Yes it's a cool song , but does anyone know what the fuck the lyrics are about ???
This song is about The Crusades, told through the eyes of Christian Soldier
Grace, I'm not sure about that. It's certainly about some crusade, but more likely a fictional one. Although the referencing to "Eden" and such may suggest it, meh. Dragon. But whatever. My favorite Hammerfall song, and proabably will stay so for a long time.
It's about some sort of war... but I think it's rather something fantasy... but it's also about a traitor who is a "stranger" among them who they kill in the end...
And this song isn't called "When The Dragon Lies Bleeding" it's called "The Dragon Lies Bleeding"...
the last line is different from that, its something "in search of the power and the glory" just a bit different
The last line is 'We'll march to the end of the world in search for the power and the glory'.
Hell of a song. The beginning rocks.
