Fortress of the Fallen

[Breakdown 1 - Slow guitars] "Echoes of defiance in the desert wind, Masada stands, where the siege begins. Fortress high, on the mount it looms, Beneath the stars, fate’s darkened gloom." [Verse 1] "Desert heat and the Roman legions’ cry, Warriors fight as the sands run dry. In the shadow of the ancient walls, Echoes of hope as the enemy calls." [Breakdown 2 - Fast drums] "Walls that whisper tales of strife, In the dead of night, clashing life. A fortress stands, defiant and tall, Against the tide of a ruthless fall." [Pre-Chorus] "As the siege drums beat, and the fire rages on, In the darkness, a defiant song. Through the chaos, a will so strong, To hold the line where the brave belong." [Chorus] "In the Fortress of the Fallen, we stand our ground, Against the storm, where the brave are found. With courage and fire, we face the night, In the shadows of Masada’s fight." [Guitar Solo - Blazing guitar solo with heavy distortion] [Breakdown 3 - Keyboard driven] "Rise above the flames, through the smoke and haze, In the heart of the siege, we blaze. Against the odds, in the face of despair, The spirit of Masada, we declare." [Verse 2] "By dawn's light, the final stand is near, In the silence, their defiance clear. Against the legions, with a resolve unbent, A fortress stands, until the end is spent." [Pre-Chorus] "As the siege drums beat, and the fire rages on, In the darkness, a defiant song. Through the chaos, a will so strong, To hold the line where the brave belong." [Chorus (Reprise)] "In the Fortress of the Fallen, we stand our ground, Against the storm, where the brave are found. With courage and fire, we face the night, In the shadows of Masada’s fight." [Drum Solo -Powerful drum solo with complex rhythms and dynamic fills] [Bridge] "Amid the ruins, where the echoes scream, In the heart of the siege, a dying dream. Yet in the ashes, a legacy is born, Of warriors' spirits, and a legacy worn." [Chorus (Reprise)] "In the Fortress of the Fallen, we stand our ground, Against the storm, where the brave are found. With courage and fire, we face the night, In the shadows of Masada’s fight." [Outro] "In the ashes of Masada, the story’s told, Of courage and defiance, brave and bold. In the ruins, the spirit stands tall, The Fortress of the Fallen, echoes through all."
