Story behind the song
This one is about how civilizations rise and fall, and how things can collapse so suddenly. I wrote this song specifically about the fall of the Roman empire.
Lyrics
-Intro Honor & glory, Bonds forged on the battlefield -Verse1 Truth told from words that immortalize An empire who’s might was unparalleled The great Gods we serve, they protect our lives -Pre-chorus Temptation rules our hearts Greed running thru our veins Now unprotected, the eternal city -Chorus Wealth and power, bring untold fortune The Pantheon of the Gods, man began to question Corruption crumbles this great civilization -Verse 2 Words given breath from those who wish to enslave The raise and fall, as government begins to decay The barbarian’s arrive, catastrophic collapse -Pre-chorus Temptation rules our hearts Greed running thru our veins Now unprotected, the eternal city -Chorus Wealth and power, bring untold fortune The Pantheon of the Gods, man began to question Corruption crumbles this great civilization -Bridge Thunderbolts hurled from the sky 1200 years put to rest -Pre-chorus Extol the ancient disciplines -Chorus Wealth and power, bring untold fortune The Pantheon of the Gods, man began to question Corruption crumbles this great civilization Words & music by Steve Klatt
