Once they gathered, fought and found What they believed to become the eternal reign Convinced of their superiority they lived an illusion Blinded by the victories / poisoned through the comfort The ghosts of the decadence arose The ghosts of the decadence arose The empire suffocated by itself Corruption, lethergy and slavery Was all that remainded The eternal reign drowned in human weakness Again some gathered and created The foundation of the perfect system: Lies! And with the knowledge of the past Laws were passed to conserve the reign Convinced of only their ideas they suppressed freedom Heading exactly the same way Aas their ancient idols They were marching towards the certain end Protected by the most powerful weapons Creating an economy to ease the living Trying everything to keep the structures They built up an illusion Drowning in corruption, lethargy and slavery Your power will fade away Only ruins will remain Nothing lasts forever; it's a waste of time And history repeats itself
