aurastara - no quarter lyrics

thirteen nights they saw the end
still they chose the fire under that blood+red sky

frost kissed the mission walls where two hundred stood alone
travis penned victory or death no retreat no throne
bowie gripped his blade through fever’s cruel bite
crockett’s rifle whispered freedom into the endless night
they watched the red flag climb where the cross oncе shone
heard degüеllo slice the air like a throat+cut tone
knew dawn would bring the slaughter no mercy in the fray
yet every soul stayed rooted and chose to make death pay

tyrant in green climbed high unfurled his crimson lie
a blood+red banner screaming: every man shall die

travis scratched the sand with saber sharp and true
cross if you’ll die with me the rest can make it through
one by one they stepped eyes steel against the storm
knew the odds were slaughter yet they chose the uniform
when walls came crashing under bayonet and flame
they sold their lives so dearly carved their rebel name
mexican officers knelt with pleading in their breath
castrillón cried mercy: these lions earned their death!
but santa anna’s rage cut colder than the steel
no prisoners walk away let every rebel kneel!

guns fell quiet in the smoke of breaking day
women and children knelt where the fallen lay
santa anna stood above susanna and the rest
spared every mother every daughter every son at her breast
two silver dollars pressed into each trembling palm
a blanket for the road then sent them safely home
go carry word he commanded with a serpent’s grin
the men chose death but the women walk free again

blood+red flag! no quarter!
degüello wails we’re marching to the slaughter!
we knew death was coming stared it dead in the eye
drew that line in the sand and chose anyway to die!
no quarter for the men! yet the women walked free that night!
blood+red flag! we burned so texas could ignite!
no quarter! (no quarter!)
blood+red flag! (blood+red flag!)
our legend rises screaming we will never die!
blood+red flag still flies inside our veins
we knew we chose
remember the alamo
