|
You will gather all around me
|
Listen to a tale that lives on
|
Passed down from your fathers
|
The answer buried deep within you
|
|
The hand that mixes blood and sand
|
The sea of death will drown the land
|
The ones that live hypocrisy
|
Reflect the blackened hearts within
|
|
Now they die again
|
No end to this dark age
|
|
History is pain
|
The future is the same
|
Hear the lies again
|
Relive the suffering
|
|
Through rimes the king remain
|
Their power schemes wipe life away
|
In little worlds, trade death each day
|
Or breeding slaves for wars of hate
|
|
Now we try again
|
The outcome's just the same
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
And the blood of man is shed
|
For one's vision, of domination
|
Greed gives birth
|
To the ongoing destruction
|
|
But one cannot stem the rides
|
Discontented are the hordes
|
Empires perched on the fall
|
Granted vision, Babylon
|
Lessons coming from the dust
|
Empires perched on the fall
|
|
So we gathered to hear this tale
|
Passed down through generations
|
Of atrocities that have and will take place
|
Still unexplained
|
|
Pawns for bureaucracy
|
Repetition, failures, battles lost
|
Centuries remain the same
|
Tyrants reign in cycles
|
Pain and tears return
|
Society commits suicide
|
|
