They came riding at first light   Fifty men armed to the teeth   The sounding horn called us out to fight   We went to meet them in the fields      Outnumbered yet we fought   But soon we were overrun   We took refuge in our home   Our downfall had just begun      They attacked our home, we kept them out   Defending ourselves with spear and bow   We took them out one by one   As the rising autumn sun glowed      There was twenty dead on each side   When we first smelled something burn   We heard them laughting from outside   Taunting us with spiteful words      They set the house on fire   In order to smoke us out   Only five of us was still alive   And our time was running out      Raging flames surrounded us all   Our home was under siege   Crumbling roof and burning walls   There was no way to break free      As we were all about to die   We swore a sacred oath   Revenge would be claimed if someone survived   And we sealed the oath in blood      The roof caved in and cleared a path   A way out of the flames   It was decided that I’d go first   As we made for our escaped      Suddenly the walls came down   And trapped the rest inside   My closest friend died that day   Only I made it out alive
