Watch while lifeblood flows unending
Generations pass unseen
Watch while I record his story
Fable of a world seen

Watch while man destroys his brother
Madness, Beauty, War his story
Watch while chaos reins supreme
And Emperor’s steal the glory

Watch while endless day’s of peace
Are overshadowed by war
Watch while history orders all
Repeating again as before

Watch while drunk men choose strange routes
And save the tyrant boy
Watch as the same, only story is told
To explain fates fickle toy

Watch while man is ignorant
Of his own beginning thought
Watch while with a thinking mind
He tears himself apart

Watch as man does fool himself
To see the present and the past
Watch and know a mothers hate
Which caused a war that was to last

Watch, know the full beginning
And you will know the end
Watch and see the fable, spread and ordered in a row
See the fable history, order, make-believe and pretend

Watch while lifeblood flows unending
That no earthly record shows
Watch and know the full beginning
That you may fix the end
