Warrior Spirit

John West


Smoky mist of dawn, rising slowly from Earth, so warm 
Blood on leaves, glistens like so many jewels 

Death is here… 
One man's victory is another's defeat 
Yet the spirit lives on and on 
Cheating fate once more 
To rise up again 

Warrior Spirit 

Do eyes of the night truly se all? 
Or are lights and shades illusion? 
Moonlight on steel, glistening like a shining star 
Reality or madness? Living in fear 

Death is near… 
One man's victory is another's defeat 
Yet the spirit lives on and on 
Cheating fate once more 
To rise up again, again 

Warrior Spirit, the shadow of the night 
Warrior Spirit, born of darkness, not the light 
Warrior Spirit is a creature of the night 
Warrior Spirit lives on, Warrior Spirit lives on 
On and on, on and on, on and on 

When the spirit cries out, does anyone hear? 
Feel the mountain tremble and the ocean rise 
When the wolf cries out, do you shed a tear? 
As the mountain crumbles right before your eyes 

Your death is here 
One man's victory is another's defeat 
Yet the spirit lives on and on 
Cheating fate once more 
To rise up again, again, again 

Warrior Spirit, the shadow of the night 
Warrior Spirit, born of darkness, not the light 
Warrior Spirit is a creature of the night 
Warrior Spirit lives on, Warrior Spirit lives on 
On and on, on and on, on and on 
On and on, on and on, on and on
