The psychic pain of my metal warriors Throws me to the ground intensely Be it a walk or a bloody kneed crawl To their side I will go we must unite now Brothers one of our number has now gone We will not forget and we will fight on We sailed the uncharted seas of vodka In a hire galleon full of sick All those nights forever hailed 'cos they built us Friendship through steel prevails I stop and think back To the myriad times In taverns across this world Guts spewed and windows broken So many women forgotten I light my pipe and watch the sunset Brothers one of our number has now gone We will not forget we will carry on A knight has left our table Weary are the hands that hold the goblets aloft in memory And burning with unknown love Are the eyes that open the gates relentlessly in memory I raise my glass to all of you who had the chance to drink with him And all our friends who never new raise your glass 'cos he'd drink with you
