Lyrics The Accolade - Symphony X

The Accolade

Into the morning sun
Down his chosen road he rides to save the world
Cross of crimson, robe of white
Sworn to the quest for the rest of his life
Play shields and wooden swords
Slaying dragons as a knight of Arthur’s Court
Trained to kill, to sing a song
Youthful hope to right the wrong
Sons of Antioch, an angel’s voice cries out to him
Free the holy lands, bring peace to it again
Across the seas through sands of time
Knight of the Templar
A charging steed through lands unkind
A legend forever
A heart of gold pumps within his metal skin
A noble line he carries on
Braving the bloody din
Silver spurs are justly earned by strength within
Squire to knight, like prince to king
Chalice of life completes the ring
Into the morning sun
Down his chosen road he rides to save the world
Across the seas through sands of time
Knight of the Templar
A charging steed through lands unkind
A legend forever
Across the seas through sands of time
Knight of the Templar
A charging steed through lands unkind
A legend forever
To see the light, he spent his life to understand
The sword he once held tight, falls forever from his hands
Across the seas through sands of time
Knight of the Templar
A charging steed through lands unkind
A legend forever
Across the seas through sands of time
Knight of the Templar
A charging steed through lands unkind
A legend forever
