Lyrics
Some of us like to think of life as a game Others are born into royalty and can never behave Some find a freedom like a man in a cage, oh no Some priest insisted it's a test of the faith And only holy devotion can keep the devils away There's only so much that a man can pray, oh no Oh, my love Oh, my love Spare my blood Spare my blood I saw the footprints in the white of the snow I counted thousands of hours just to ride out alone 18 degrees and 80 miles from home, oh no We built a wall to keep the devils at bay A distant army who's marching through the night and the day I swore an oath and with my life I will pay, oh no Oh, my love Oh, my love Spare my blood Nightshade, won't you take me away? And I can hold my breath for another day But it was all, it was all, for the throne We were surrounded and the ending was near All of a sudden, a ranger arrived, a saviour appeared Made it to safety but the devil was here, oh no Oh, my love Nightshade, won't you take me away? And I can hold my breath for another day But it was all, it was all, for the throne
