Marked
As empires expand and collapse
Beliefs
That spread and wither
Control
A pattern of conquest
Excesses that doom
Overweening ambition
Some poetic justice?
You are tracing a life circle
Confined, in a repeated pattern
Halfway through the process
You know how the other half will be
How could it be?
How could it be?
The same hands, the same hands
That gave peace and shelter
To the ones that they are about to destroy
Despite all the greatness
The decline will be
For the same reasons
The length of chaos will be the one for your glory
Your descent
Your descent
Your downfall
As empires expand and collapse
Beliefs
That spread and wither
Control
A pattern of conquest
Excesses that doom
Overweening ambition
Some poetic justice?
You are tracing a life circle
Confined, in a repeated pattern
Halfway through the process
You know how the other half will be
How could it be?
How could it be?
The same hands, the same hands
That gave peace and shelter
To the ones that they are about to destroy
Despite all the greatness
The decline will be
For the same reasons
The length of chaos will be the one for your glory
Your descent
Your descent
Your downfall
