Lyrics
Forgotten centurion casualty of war
Reflects on a centurion left unnoticed as a casualty in a war
Heading towards the evening sun trying to find my way back home
Expresses the centurion's journey towards the sunset, searching for home
The sun blinds my eyes and my feet are heavy and worn
Describes the challenges faced: blinding sun, weary feet, and a wound
A wound in my side and a long perilous road
Highlights a significant injury and a difficult, perilous road ahead
Forgotten centurion still so far to go
Reiterates the centurion's struggle with a long journey ahead
Barely enough strength just to drag my sword
Conveys the centurion's physical weakness, struggling to wield the sword
I'm running out of time and my body's moving slow
Stresses the urgency and slowness of movement, time running out
At the crossroads of life not sure which way I'll go
Expresses uncertainty at a life crossroads, unsure of the path
Lost in the black avoiding attack with a devil on my back
Describes being lost, avoiding attack with an ominous presence (devil)
Energy's waning slowly dying my home I'll never reach
Details the centurion's diminishing energy, approaching death without reaching home
Gods' mercy I seek, will they answer me, send roman cavalry
Pleads for divine mercy, questioning if the gods will send help (roman cavalry)
Soldier forsaken, Im forgotten, centurion
Declares the centurion as forsaken and forgotten
Forgotten centurion casualty of war
Repeats the centurion's status as a forgotten casualty of war
No coins for the ferryman, no penance for my soul
Mentions lack of resources for afterlife (coins for the ferryman), no redemption for the soul
With tears in my eyes I push myself onward
Portrays determination with tears, pushing forward despite hardships
I've got death on my mind, and more regrets than I can afford
Expresses a preoccupation with death, burdened by numerous regrets
Lost in the black avoiding attack with a devil on my back
Reiterates the theme of being lost, facing challenges with a malevolent force (devil)
Energy's waning slowly dying my home I'll never reach
Restates the centurion's fading energy and impending death
Gods' mercy I seek, will they answer me, send roman cavalry
Repeats the plea for divine intervention and assistance (roman cavalry)
Soldier forsaken, Im forgotten, centurion
Reaffirms the centurion's sense of abandonment and being forgotten
