The Colossus

[Verse 1]
Outside the city the aerosol winds paint walls of pity
A howling gale calls out my name
The Colossus stands as tall as time
Oh time, it's all we have
Down the road an underpass fates us an endless echo
Hide and seek iIn the concrete meadow
All our lives now to escape the sinister doldrums
Branded by a notion

[Chorus]
"All kingdoms are destined to fall!"
A voice cries out and says
"The Colossus knows no tragedy
Life goes on instead"

[Verse 2]
"The war had ended long ago
But the world still can't find peace"
"Only hope is found in Meridian
The long lost golden fleece"

[Bridge]
Twinkling in the dark
Everything we thought we knew
The stars remind our mortality
We’re so small that it seems
The universe cries for us

[Verse 3]
"Welcome to the city
Of satisfaction, sorcery and talk"
"Find yourself delayed in the land of urge"
He says, and shouts again:

[Chorus]
"All kingdoms are destined to fall!"
He warns, his eyes are shot
"In the land of lust and prophecy
Your solution begins right here"
