[Intro]
"August 12, 30 BC. Alexandria. The Roman legions are at the gates. The Ptolemaic line ends today. But a Queen of Egypt does not bow. She belongs to the gods now."
[Verse 1]
The golden sun is setting on the mighty palace wall,
The roman soldiers gather for the final tragic fall.
The queen of the eternal river answers to the call,
And leaves a heavy legacy to terrify them all.
[Pre-Chorus]
The venom of the serpent is incredibly so fast,
The glory of the empire is living in the past.
The shadow of the monument is beautifully cast,
The memory of royalty will permanently last.
[Chorus]
Oh, listen to the weeping for the ruler of the throne!
The greatest ancient kingdom that humanity has known!
The majesty of Egypt is completely overthrown!
A terrifying tragedy is carved into the stone!
[Extended Egyptian Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
The ancient gods are waiting on the other river side,
The ruler of the desert is completely full of pride.
The secrets of the ancestors she desperately will hide,
A beautifully devastating cinematic ride.
[Pre-Chorus]
The venom of the serpent is incredibly so fast,
The glory of the empire is living in the past.
The shadow of the monument is beautifully cast,
The memory of royalty will permanently last.
[Chorus]
Oh, listen to the weeping for the ruler of the throne!
The greatest ancient kingdom that humanity has known!
The majesty of Egypt is completely overthrown!
A terrifying tragedy is carved into the stone!
[Massive Instrumental Bridge]
[Vocal Bridge]
The temple is retreating to the shadow of the dark,
The venom of the viper leaves a devastating mark.
The burning of the city is a terrifying spark,
The history of rulers on a lonely wooden bark.
[Upward Modulation / Massive Percussion Fill]
[Final Chorus]
Oh, listen to the weeping for the ruler of the throne!
The greatest ancient kingdom that humanity has known!
The majesty of Egypt is completely overthrown!
A terrifying tragedy is carved into the stone!
[Outro]
The story of the river is arriving at the end,
A supernatural message that the deities will send.
The fabric of the universe is starting now to bend,
A beautiful eternity the spirits will defend.
[End]
