[Intro]
Drums in the valley
Storm on the hill
Banners are rising
Blood shall be spilled

[Verse]
The dawn was red and silent
The field was cold and wide
We stood before the traitors
With brothers at our side

Their armor shone like winter
Their banners mocked the slain
But every man among us
Had walked through deeper pain

[Pre-Chorus]
The horns cried out, the arrows flew
The earth beneath our footsteps knew
That honor writes in red and gold
The truth the cowards never told

[Chorus]
Blood on the Banner
Steel in the rain
Hearts full of thunder
No death is in vain
Blood on the Banner
Raise it higher still
We fight for the fallen
And the kingdom on the hill

[Verse]
The first line broke like water
The second held like stone
I saw my brothers falling
But none of them alone

Old Harven took the standard
Though arrows filled his chest
He laughed into the fury
And held it to the west

[Pre-Chorus]
The cloth was torn, the pole was cracked
But never once the banner backed
And every drop that touched its thread
Became the voice of honored dead

[Chorus]
Blood on the Banner
Steel in the rain
Hearts full of thunder
No death is in vain
Blood on the Banner
Raise it higher still
We fight for the fallen
And the kingdom on the hill

[Instrumental]
March of the brave
Cry of the slain
Fire in the valley
Iron in the rain

[Bridge]
I held the banner when he fell
I heard the storm become a bell
And through the smoke I swore his name
No loyal blood shall fall in shame

[Breakdown]
Hold the line
Raise the sign
Blood and fire
Mine and thine

[Build-up]
Higher, higher, through the storm
Let the torn red banner form
Like a crown above the field
We shall break, but never yield

[Chorus]
Blood on the Banner
Steel in the rain
Hearts full of thunder
No death is in vain
Blood on the Banner
Raise it higher still
We fight for the fallen
And the kingdom on the hill

[Chorus]
Blood on the Banner
Let the war horns cry
Blood on the Banner
Let it burn against the sky
Blood on the Banner
Raise it higher still
We fight for the fallen
And the kingdom on the hill

[Outro]
When the last drums fade away
And the ravens take the day
Still the banner shall remain
Red with honor, not with shame
