    Story Behind the Song
    Introduction (translated):"This is about the freedom fight of a little village against the dark tower of power. This battle was lost, but the faith in freedom stayed!"

    Lyrics
    BETRAYAL AT THE HILL

    AND THE PEOPLE WENT TO THE HILL
    AND THE TOWER OF POWER STOOD STILL
    AND THE STOOD AND THEY STARED
    AND DECIDED THAT THEY WOULD DARE
    TO BEAT THE DRUM TO RAISE THE FLAG
    AND PUT ENEMYS´ HEADS ON STACKS
    SO TEAR IT DOWN TEAR IT DOWN
    AND GET OFF THE KINGS´ CROWN

    SO THEY MARCHED FOR THEIR FREEDOM
    TO GET RID OF THE KING AND HIS KINGDOM
    ONLY HAD STICKS ONLY HAD STONES
    SOME OF THEM JUST THEIR OWN BONES
    BUT THEY WERE BRAVE AND DETERMINED
    CONVINCED VICTORYS´ SUN WOULD SHINE
    SO TEAR IT DOWN TEAR IT DOWN
    AND GET OFF THE KINGS´ CROWN

    I AM THE TRAITOR WHO WENT TO THE KING
    FOR A FEW COINS OF GOLD AND A SILVER RING
    HE´S GOT THE KNOWLEDGE OF FORTHCOMING REVOLT
    FOR FILTHY LUCRE MY VALLEY WAS SOLD

    AND THE KING HE MADE HIS PLANS
    POWERFUL TROOPS THAT HE SENT
    TO BE HIDDEN IN THE VALLEY
    NEAR THE MARKET SQUARE IN BACK ALLEYS
    TO INCIRCLE THE INSURGENTS
    AND HE HELD TRAITORS´ HEAD IN HIS HANDS
    THERE WAS AN AMBUSH THERE WAS AN AMBUSH
    AMBUSH AT THE MARKET SQUARE

    I AM THE KING - WE ARE THE PEOPLE
    DOWN TO YOUR KNEES - LIBERTY OF DEATH
    YOU HAVE GOT TO SURRENDER - WE´LL GIVE YOU HELL
    ATTACK

    GLIMMERING STEEL FLYING LANCES
    VERY SOON TOOK THE PEOPLE´S CHANCES
    THE PEOPLE FOUGHT BRAVE AND STRONG
    BUT THE BATTLE WAS LOST AND NOT WON
    A WHOLW VALLEY WAS WIPED OUT
    SOLDIERS DANCED ON THE DEAD CROWS
    IT WAS BETRAYAL IT WAS BETRAYAL
    BETRAYAL AT THE HILL

    I AM THE CHILD THAT SURVIVED
    AND WITH ME THE SEED OF RESISTANCE
    AND ONE DAY WE THE PEOPLE
    GOING TO RISE AGAIN

    (Schramme)
