Across the Rubicon Lyrics

Dark are the days that have come to this

8 Years of my life in the viper's pit

O Rome that fed us all to Dis

Caesar says they call us criminal

Those Patricians reprehensible

Now we must do the unthinkable

Bound on with sharpened steel

For Caesar never yield

The Eagle we swear on

To do what must be done

And so the die is cast

Time for withdrawal has passed

All apprehension gone

Across the Rubicon

Our duty calls us sail to Greece

Only Victory will bring us peace

Before the thirteenth they fall to their knees

The defeated Pompey ran and fled

To the land of Egypt, of the dead

In a basket a Consul's head

Bound on with sharpened steel

For Caesar never yield

The Eagle we swear on

To do what must be done

And so the die is cast

Time for withdrawal has passed

All apprehension gone

Across the Rubicon

Daggers, made for the night

Were brought, into the daylight

And there, our General died

When he did not, beware March's Ides!

Bound on with sharpened steel

For Caesar never yield

The Eagle we swear on

To do what must be done

And so the die is cast

Time for withdrawal has passed

All apprehension gone

Across the Rubicon

Iacta alea est

Austerus prex

Veni vidi vici

Sumus populi

Nunc tempus adest

Caesar vindicatus est

Carnifex es, Brute

Ex Rubicone
