Luca Adonis - Ozymandias

When I'm gone
Who will be there to say my name?
I'm alone
The top is the loneliest place
The world is crumbling around me
No one can see what I can see
My enemies will see me die
I'm a canvas, my friends have knives
Look on my works and you will find nothing of my kingdom's time
How much higher must I climb to leave this Earth of mine divine?
Ozymandias, I walk on a single road
Ozymandias, in time I will turn to dust
Is everything I've done in life enough to be written in time?
No one out there knows my name, no one's got the words to say
Ozymandias, I hope I am kind and just
On my throne
I see my kingdom bright as day
So alone
Looking down, hearing what they say
My people, they mourn and cry
Memento mori, we all must die
Not even gods stand the test of time
It burns the vision of the divine
Honor me in death as you did in life
Scatter my ashes, with the wind they fly
Pollinate the Earth and praise the sky
My world lives on in every place and time
Ozymandias, I walk on a single road
Ozymandias, in time I will turn to dust
Is everything I've done in life enough to be written in time?
No one out there knows my name, no one's got the words to say
Ozymandias, I hope I am kind and just
Ozymandias, when the last song is sung
Ozymandias, when the last story's told
Is everything I've done in life enough to be written in time?
No one out there knows my name, no one's got the words to say
Ozymandias, I hope I was kind and just
Ozymandias, now I have turned to dust
