Crumbling down the stone Can you see it The city beneath is there Can you read it The writings of the old I’m not going away The spirits do not share You must listen to what we say Remember me Buried away beneath the black ruin of yore Is the dark rune of persecution Nothing to say but the dark words of the master’s tongue Telling you work, slave, under my gun From the old world to the new Shipwrecks killed all but the chosen few Dying in vain When this body gives all it’s got My life will be just an after-thought Crumbling down the stone Can you see it The city beneath is there Can you read it The writings of the old I’m not going away The spirits do not share You must listen to what we say Remember me Remember this soul No matter what’s told Beneath the black ruin of yore Is the dark rune of persecution Nothing to say But the words of the masters tongue From the old world to the new Shipwrecks killed all but the chosen few Dying in vain this body gives all until it rots
