Shiroyama lyrics

It's the nature of time

That the old ways must give in

It's the nature of time

That the new ways comes in sin

When the new meets the old

It always ends the ancient ways

And as history told

The old ways go out in a blaze

Encircled by a vulture

The end of ancient culture

The dawn of destiny draws near

Imperial force defied, facing 500 samurai

Surrounded and outnumbered

60 to 1 the sword face the gun

Bushido dignified

It's the last stand of the samurai

Surrounded and outnumbered

As a new age begins

The way of the warrior comes to an end

As a new age begins

The ways of old must apprehend

It's the nature of time

That the old ways must give in

It's the nature of time

That the new ways comes in sin

An offer of surrender

Saigo ignore contender

The dawn of destiny is here

Imperial force defied, facing 500 samurai

Surrounded and outnumbered

60 to 1 the sword face the gun

Bushido dignified

It's the last stand of the samurai

Surrounded and outnumbered

Until the dawn they hold on

Only 40 are left at the end

None alive, none survive

Shiroyama

Imperial force defied, facing 500 samurai

Surrounded and outnumbered

60 to 1 the sword face the gun

Bushido dignified

It's the last stand of the samurai

Surrounded and outnumbered

60 to 1, facing the gun

60 to 1, culture undone
