Twelve lyrics

They were twelve of the bravest men that I've ever seen

They were waiting on a mountain top to defend their queen

Against the rambling troops of bandits hiding in the stormy night

And when they heard hollow steps nearing they knew they had to fight

They were twelve and they were fighting. Their blood covering their hands

Against the growing crowd of enemies no one of them could stand

Just the oldest of our brave men was resisting in his rage

But when he also fell he left this world at fifteen years of age

They were twelve of the bravest men that I have ever seen

Much too young and much too courageous and much too valiant
