(chorus)
As I write from the front line
I think; wouldn't it be fine
If I could see you again
And not just pretend
Alas, it is just a dream in my mind

We set out at dawn
All three hundred strong
You are just a dream in my mind

I see hardened faces
From various places
You are just a dream in my mind
(chorus)

chorus

It is now time
To move our bold kind
You are just a dream in my mind.

Our future is determined
By those creeps, scum, and vermin
You are just a dream in my mind

chorus

As the dawn breaks
Their cutthroats not yet awake
You are just a dream in my mind

We gather our strength
However long in length
You are just a dream in my mind

chorus

The attack is almost ready
Our steeds are all but steady
You are just a dream in my mind

We are ready to die?
Under vicious skies
You are just a dream in my mind

chorus

We whisper the signal
We charge out at the dismal
You are just a dream in my mind

Death all around me
I swing my sword mightily
You are just a dream in my mind

chorus

Both sides are dying
Our wounded are lying
You are just a dream in my mind

There are just few left standing
The dead see angels landing
You are just a dream in my mind

chorus

They are pulling ahead
Above all our dead
You are just a dream in my mind

We will not give up
But their spirits are going up
You are just a dream in my mind

chorus

A gladius hits from nowhere
Mine own armor is tearing
You are just a dream in my mind

My chest is bloody
From my Cinerian buddy
You are just a dream in my mind

I hear the dying screaming
Mine own flesh is teeming
You are just a dream in my mind

I dare not make sound
For the Cinerians search the ground
You are just a dream in my mind

I am surely dying
Here where I am lying
You are just a dream in my mind

I feel no pain
My tunic is bloodstained
You are just a dream in my mind

I'm slipping away
On the battlefield to-day
You are just a dream in my mind

They think they have won
But we've just begun
You are just a dream in my mind

I think about you
And your smiling face too
You are just a dream in my mind

It is now my time
To go beyond the line
But if I see you again
It will be in heaven
And that would just be fine

Wouldn't it be grand
Just to hold your hand?
It is just a dream in my mind

You will never see my letter
But I think It's all the better
You are just a dream in my mind

I just want you to feel
That my love was always real
Good-bye, my love, and sweet dreams.
