[Verse] The sky was grey like an old man's sigh Mud clung to boots where dreams went to die Steel met bone in the cold damp air A prayer for mercy but none was there [Chorus] Oh Agincourt oh bitter ground Where the cries of men are the only sound The fields drank deep of a crimson tide Oh Agincourt where hope has died [Instrumental break] [Verse 2] Banners flew but they seemed to weep Ghosts of the fallen now guard their keep Arrows rained like a storm of night Blotting the sun stealing the light [Prechorus] The king stood tall but the cost was steep Victory gained but at what we keep [Chorus] Oh Agincourt oh bitter ground Where the cries of men are the only sound The fields drank deep of a crimson tide Oh Agincourt where hope has died [Instrumental break] [Bridge] Do the stars above remember the pain Do they recall the blood and rain History sings but it cannot mend The shattered lives it chose to bend
