Lyrics Meet The Enemy - Eluveitie

Meet The Enemy

There at these ominous
Shores of river Saone
There at these shores the
Die has been cast
Valour and honour were
Stripped off their meaning
We will not know innocence again
At somber nightfall the
Defenseless were
Bestially run down
Saone stained with
Helvetic blood
You will not shake hands
With arrant beliers
You’d rather die than
Turn into minions
Freedom was our highest good
We ventured our lives
Meet the liar
This dead black night
Our destiny revealed
Meet the enemy
It will
Never be the same
At these portentous shores
Of river Saone
There at these shores the
Die has been cast
We saw the true face
Of the roman ravener
The gorgoneion on the cuirass appeared
It was like playing
Ludus Latrunculorum
The pieces were made
Of flesh and of blood
Valour and honour
Bereft of their meaning
The blood on your hands
Will forever stay
Freedom was our highest good
We ventured our lives
Meet the liar
This dead black night
Our destiny revealed
Meet the enemy
It will
Never be the same
It’s not us to Go under the Yoke,
Of that fact the Roman
People are witness —
We will not bow
Meet the enemy
Meet the liar
