Name: Last Man Standing
Duration: P00H04M26S
Description: We join the young warrior on the run. We crash through emotions: fear, shock, rage, relief and, ultimately, resolve. He's the last man standing, but his survival means there is hope. First rock pre-chorus in history to feature the word 'Holmgard' (well, as far as we know).

Last Man Standing

supported by

Bulletrider What can I way more than that I just love it. This speaks to me on so many levels. It's nostalgia and fandom put into music, making me feel both joyful as well as timesick (you know - like homesick but for an era past, it's more than "just" nostalgia). Can't wait to hear more from you guys.

lyrics

Sent to pray for my soul
Fetching wood to make amends
When the sky turned cold
With wicked wings from the west

Rang the bell but all too late
Blackened beasts had sealed your fate
There was blood on the walls
As the Kai died at my feet

Send word to the king
Flee to Holmgard

I'm the last man standing
At the end of the day
A thousand names never on a grave
And I'm staring them down
Staring them down for you

I'm the last man standing
All my brothers gone
A thousand souls in the blink of an eye
And I'm staring them down
Staring them down for you

As I ran from the dark
A red rage filled my heart
And I cut them down
Butchered them where they stood

In the trees I met a man
Flowing robes and gentle hands
He said “Don't fear me,”
“I'm here to help, my friend”

Send word to the king
Flee to Holmgard

I'm the last man standing
At the end of the day
A thousand names never on a grave
And I'm staring them down
Staring them down for you

The Kai will rise again
The Kai will live again
The Kai will fight again
The Kai will win again

I'm the last man standing
At the end of the day
A thousand names never on a grave
And I'm staring them down
Staring them down for you
