Ozymandias Lyrics

Listen, the sound of emptiness, echoing all around

Filing up this place

The voices of the past, circling about, the garden gates

Yet no familiar sound

Ancient town that once stood tall now filled with broken dreams

And darkened shadows now embrace

Empty space, no human trace, but still it feels not all is as it seems

In this forgotten place

Lying buried in the ground, a visage of a bust

Feel its dead eyes staring at your back

Turned to dust, rubble and rust, torn away, ending as it must

Fading into black

Close your eyes and visualize

Beneath the sands and endless skies

Listen close, recall the melody

The eulogy of the mortal body

Gaze upon my works and despair

Only decay is what remains
