The city awakens in silence Morning is breaking Before the rooster crows Rising unrest sets in South of Toulouse On the plains of Muret Under an imminent threat People have fled in dismay Afar the riders appear Raising clouds of dust Snorting horses Are coming this way
The hills are over flown By a mass of gold, red and blue The armies of the south at last United by a common foe Amidst the closing horde A rider shines in daybreak's light He is known as the warrior-king Who has never lost a fight
Trapped in safety Behind the castle gate Surrounded by thousands Awaiting their fate
The soldiers of the cross Are forced to an act of desperation
About to risk their lives in open field They prepare for battle knowing their foes will never yield Their force divine grows stronger and stronger As they confess their sins and pray for their lives
For God and glory We shall prevail this day Show no mercy for those who stand in our way
The Red Lion's forces Storm out through the gates On a course towards triumph Or a deadly fate The alliance of the South Is caught by surprise No time to brace themselves For the ultimate impending carnage
As knights spurred on and horses made speed The earth started trembling under their feet Driven by bravery and focused by fear Time slows down as their judgement draws near Riders and horses Cut down from below Like the sound of a forest Struck down in one blow Shattering armour Clatter of steel Two armies colliding A bloodbath surreal
Making their ways towards the royal arms The crusaders regroup for a second charge The fictitious king does not stand a chance He's cast from his saddle by the blow of a lance With one strike of a sword he falls down
This is no king this is merely a liege These are not the skills of royal prestige We've been tricked by these mongrels Had by those fools Bring me this coward and I'll dig him a tomb
I am the king
You bastard, where are you You'll rot where you stand Show me your face You will die by my hand
Come closer you scoundrel Let's finish this strife This foolish bravado Will cost you your life
"Alain de Roucy, who'd sworn to strike down the warrior-king, emerged from the chaos of shattered shields and fallen heroes. The king and his men were soon surrounded. In the desperate struggle that followed, de Roucy managed to single out and disarm Peter of Aragon and with a well-aimed blow of his sword he made an end to his reign"
Unaware of their brethren's fate Raymond's troops held back 'till it was too late Heavily bleeding, barely alive The final few brought the news of their king's demise
Skulls cracked by maces And warrior's slain Men trampled by horses And screaming in pain Harnesses covered In sanguine rain For those who will stand Only darkness remains
Pushed to the stream By crusaders depraved Driving them Into a watery grave The unearthly silence As spirits transcend When all comes to an end
