The Decision Tree (We're Alive)

Ah, my friends!

So light of foot.

So swift.

You have come this far.

And now - here beneath the ancient, omniscient boughs of the

Decision Tree - one of you must depart this world of flesh.

Only seven may continue.

Only you can decide... [barbarian] let it be known

I won't be the one to die here honour and glory are heaped upon my name let it be clear

I'm not the one who cries here what about the tall one, the one who's lost to shame [highlander]

I've followed princes,

I've raised their bloody banners

I've killed and wounded on the side of right

I've reaped the harvest, scattered fields with ashes

I've buried children, sowed the seeds of hate [all (chorus:)] we're alive we'll survive we will strike for our freedom we're alive we'll survive we'll arrive in our eden [highlander]

I've followed princes

I've followed kings

I will take their lead no more

I will not lie in shallow graves (I'm nobody's slave) [barbarian] let it be known, by

Thor the god of lightning

I have been chosen to do battle at his side let it be clear

I was born to go down fighting what about the craven, the one who's lost his pride [highlander] don't speak to me of homour, pride and glory

I've tasted blood, seen your type before you talk of battle but all you tell are stories you'd see me buried in a shallow grave [all (chorus), highlander]
