Armed With Courage.

Armed with courage trudging through the silence,
Beholding the blessed; forgetting those who've fallen,
Remembering old faces beneath the moon that night,
A silver blade shining from a glistening light.

Blood thirsty demons waiting for perfect opportunities,
Sinking their fangs into fresh flesh and be done with their prey,
Blood spilling over forest floors,
Wolves howling at the harvest moon.

Armed with courage, spirits raise their bloody blades,
ready to fight, ready to conquer,
Enemy after Enemy is slain,
Armed with courage, vacant spirits will desolate.
