Forward drive them down the hill
Archers fire into their ranks
No mercy for traitors to the crown
Keep formation do you hear me
Why
Why are they slowing
From here I see the tide of men
A river of blades beneath the sun
They march they clash they bleed for me
For the crown they think I've won
But the banners bend beneath the wind
Their colors fade in choking haze
A perfect line I built with pride
Now shatters before my gaze
Hold the line hold it fast
Do not yield to Alma's might
I see them falter why do they fall
Where's the strength I swore was right
The tide is shifting by the stars
This can't be real
Not yet
Not ours
Messengers report
Why are the flanks withdrawing
Who gave that order
No one
No one dares to answer me
Their captains are gone
Or dead
Their eyes already turned to flee
I thought myself above the fray
Commanding order calm control
But chaos spreads through every rank
And fear devours every soul
The men I crowned with hope and gold
Now run like leaves before the gale
The dream I built with perfect words
Begins to rot begins to pale
No stand firm you are my wall
Your king commands your oath is true
Do not shame the crown you swore
This day decides the world for you
But their backs are turning shields retreating
The tide is turning my heart is beating
Too fast
Too loud
It sounds like fear
Alma warned me
He said I'd see my throne undone
That my crown would melt to dust
But he's not here I am
And kings do not fall
They adapt
To the south the wilderness
We'll regroup beyond the border
Yes
Yes the Lamanites
They'll join us they'll see the promise
This isn't the end
This is strategy
A king must know when to withdraw
Let Alma claim his fleeting win
Let him think the war is done
I'll return with greater hosts
The crown restored the battle won
My men may flee my banners fall
But destiny will bend to me
The tide may turn but I'll return
And claim the crown eternally
Fall back to the wilds to the south
Save the seed of what we've made
The crown still burns it is not out
This war is only delayed
The tide may turn but it obeys
The hand that dares command the waves
To the wilderness
To the Lamanites
Let Alma think himself victorious
He's won a field
I'll win a kingdom
He saw my end
But he didn't see my return
