Cavalry

Well, I've carried the world on my back, with no more to obtain
 The fire in the sky, a dim light in my eye that's long faded
 And I've stood where heroes have fallen, their names turned to stone
 Yet I remain nameless, the best friend the hero has known
 Now I'm saving my strength for running
 These days I'm saving my strength for running
 From the age of kings, when pride decided all fate
 Long before war machines took charge and I was still 'wake
 It was blind hope and blinders, with young men to carry between
 All the death and the glory, believin' they're one and the same
 Now I'm saving my strength for running
 These days I'm saving my strength for running
 ♪
 Yes, I've carried the world on my back, with no more to obtain
 The sword and the shield, perched upon saddles and reins
 But the stampedes of thunder, the cavalry's charge leaves me now
 Your last war will come, but I can not follow you down
 No, I'm saving my strength for running
 These days I'm saving my strength for running
 I said, these days I'm saving my strength for running
