• Scale of Ruin

The gleaming city stands no more
It has been leveled from the chaos and war
The death of the monarchy brought forth anarchy
And the peasants revolted amongst themselves

See it's once great towers, crumbled to dust
Stale bread and foul water that will fester for ages
Yet the capital will soon be forgotten
As a new empire emerges in the west
The flesh will rot from the bones
Leaving the fetid stench of decay

It was once a place of prosperity
Yet the magi planned for its collapse
They wanted to be twelve new kings
Though their plans were silenced
By an uproar of violence

Their marble gods fell to their knees
Heads tumbling down and crumbling to pieces
Their temples were torched and their commerce destroyed
Their currency left in a smoldering heap
And I must ask myself
Is this the scale of ruin?
The city now lies in rubble
Is this the scale of ruin?
There is no refuge
In this scale of ruin

One might ask themselves
Were the magi truly successful after all?
Though looking at the debris that surrounds me
The answer seems all too clear
For these are the winds of decay
Blowing upon me

The gleaming city stands no more
See it's once great towers, crumbled to dust
The gleaming city stands no more
Stale bread and foul water that will fester for ages
The gleaming city stands no more
It has been leveled from the chaos and war

The gods fell silently to their knees
As they welcomed the scale of ruin
