Outro Lyrics by XIPHOS

The Rise and Fall of Athens

2023

Picture the city of Athens, home to many a hero
Surrounded by mountains and the sea
Its port, the Piraeus, was a doorway to the Aegean
Its people, the Athenians, relied on an inquisitive free spirit
Not blessed with great riches from the soil
They visited adjacent and faraway lands and shores
- quenching their thirst for knowledge and adventure
And they had risen to dizzying heights
And like Icarus, they had fallen
Their imperial ambitions shattered
They would never lay claim to such a vast territory again
But their legacy would live on
In the hearts and minds of countless generations to come
All over the world

The dreams that crumble and fade will always find a way
