Lyrics: Verse: Beneath the pale and shattered sky Through endless fields where shadows lie The cursed battalion marches on Forgotten wars, their names long gone Once noble hearts with banners high Now ghostly forms that cannot die Their cause a whisper on the breeze A fading dream they’ll never seize Pre-Chorus: Through ash and ruin, the echoes swell A hollow anthem, their solemn knell Bound to the march, a living hell Chorus: Through hollow plains of dusk they stride Shadows of a cause that died With every step, the echoes sing The sorrow of the march they bring The cursed are bound, their fates entwined Eternal shadows, lost to time Verse: The barren ground beneath their tread Cries out for mercy, long since dead Each soul a prisoner, bound by chains To walk forever, endure the pain The moonlight gleams on armor worn Their faces masked by grief and scorn The lands they fought for now decay Yet still they march, come night or day Pre-Chorus: The fading stars, their silent mourn For hearts once pure, now wrecked and torn An endless path of loss forlorn Chorus: Through hollow plains of dusk they stride Shadows of a cause that died With every step, the echoes sing The sorrow of the march they bring The cursed are bound, their fates entwined Eternal shadows, lost to time Verse: A fleeting thought, a glimpse of grace A life they’ve lost, a time, a place The laughter, love, and hopes they knew Now whispers lost in the night’s cold hue Yet in their hearts, the embers glow A spark of pride they dare not show For though they march, condemned, betrayed Their honor’s debt will not be paid Pre-Chorus: The night winds call, a haunting hymn Through endless dark, their light grows dim A solemn march on fate’s cold whim Chorus: Through hollow plains of dusk they stride Shadows of a cause that died With every step, the echoes sing The sorrow of the march they bring The cursed are bound, their fates entwined Eternal shadows, lost to time Bridge: Once we stood as brothers true Our banners bold, our fates we knew Now only shadows keep the line Forever bound by curse and time Chorus: Through hollow plains of dusk they stride Shadows of a cause that died With every step, the echoes sing The sorrow of the march they bring The cursed are bound, their fates entwined Eternal shadows, lost to time Final Chorus: Through endless night, they march as one A fleeting hope beneath the sun Though cursed to walk, they’ll never fall For honor’s flame still burns through all Their memory fades, but still they try To claim the peace beneath the sky #WestCoastAI #PowerMetal #MelancholicMetal #EpicMetal #OrchestralMetal #HauntingMelodies #Anthemic #GuitarSolo #CursedSoldiers #EternalMarch #EmotionalLyrics #TragicThemes #DramaticMusic #MetalMusic #NewRelease
