about

Sometimes you just have to nail your colours to the mast!!

lyrics

I walked this morning in the shadow of the abbey
Crumbling sandstone proud against the sky
Red like the fire in the hearts of them before me
Who pressed their seal upon the page and pledged to fight and die

Chorus
I cross my heart with a saltire
To fight for you while a breath in me remains
As long as I stand on my feet, this promise I will keep
Till the unicorn breaks free from her chains

Centuries then passed since the nobles made their mark
Hard won freedom for our ancient clans
Then squandered by rogues for their parcels of gold
Driving kin out from their homes and raping the land

Chorus

Thankfully the broadswords and dirks are long gone
Battles now fought with paper and pen
Held against our will in a union sham
Laid bare for all to see that we must rise again

Chorus x 2
