Serenity - Changing Fate Lyrics

So ends the tale of a hero
with a true English heart
Of a man who knows pain and sorrow
and the fortunes in life
Villain, then hero, then scapegoat was I
Once I was knighted, now my star disappeared
in a darkening sky

[Chorus 1:]
Never feared the enemy
not on land, nor on sea
Beating loud inside me, I can't negate
I've been always fighting for,
for my Queen forevermore
the empire's blade for a changing fate

This news is too disappointing
to ignore it, Sir Drake!
Sunken ships and twelve thousand fallen,
a disastrous mistake!
You've been a daring, reliable man (I'm still that man!)
upright and loyal to his Queen and land
Now our union must end

[Chorus 2:]
Never feared the enemy
not on land, nor on sea
Beating loud inside me, I can't negate
We've been always fighting for
our land forevermore
The empire's blade for a changing fate

... the island's fate forever
May England's people ever
know well our names and honour
our legacy ...

Will now the overrun armada rise again?
Finally tide has turned
I fear the menace of invasion is at hand ...
Hear me now, I have learned my lesson, please be gracious
I shall never fail anymore!

[Chorus 2 3x]
