"The Rhymes of Running Wild" - Tribute to Running Wild

It was a time when one small child
Was listening to The Running Wild
It was so close to Victory
And German beer was chemical free*

You may ask for whom it's belong (to)
It is true that's Knopfler's song
The Germans used to fight a lot
You should not ask "Is this true or not?"

Someone asked "Why don't you come in?
It was so close to Black Hand Inn
The Masquerade has just begun
I've heard wild screaming "Run, run, run!"

They've felt like Branded and Exiled
You hear from speakers Running Wild
The Brotherhood is still in The Rivalry
If you're scare - you can't be free

The Shadowmaker was Resilient
The Arc of Space was truely bent
Blood on blood doesn't want to dry
You can't wait, so you could cry

Port Royal is still intact
The Rapid Foray is a fact
Rogues en Vogue will meet you soon
The flowers would fled from the Moon

Under Jolly Roger he stayed
Every single sin he prayed (for)
He would easily fall to knees
And would give a lot to be kissed

Then you could meet the Death or Glory
Someone's opened Gates to Purgatory
Blazon Stones crushed Pile of Skulls
The time is over for trust and rules

*) Mark Knopfler's song
