about
So gritty, you can feel the sand blowing through your hair! If there were a rock band in 700 BC, this is what they would sound like. The crazy brass stabs and Josiah's leads get me every time. This song is really about legacy. When you stop breathing, what remains?
lyrics
Close your eyes, behold unseen reality · Peer beyond the darkened veil of antiquity · Words of kings on tablets hewn in stone · Boast forgotten acts yet fallen from their throne · A city courses with blood, sweat, and sand · Crushing mighty mortals in its hand · Surely the starry skies foretold the signs · Or some prophet of old revealed the Divine · King of Babylon, your deeds transmute to rust · You rule for a day but in time you return to dust · Empires forged in the strength of his prime · Worn away by undulating waves of time · Fevered dream dissipates in the mist · Ancient wonders of the world cease to exist · Did your madness cause you to fall? · Did your matchless pride consume it all?
