Lyrics
The Messenger
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The messenger has said the word
New monuments of dominance
Will soon be quashed, the test of time
Kingdoms fall, empires fail
CHORUS:
Tides turn, shores corrode
The arrogant will face the fire
Intolerance will face the sword
Freedom beyond this world
Systems fail, regimes die
Turn to dust, fade to sand
Chorus
