lyrics

I met a man from an antique land who said: “Out in the sands
Two vast and trunkless legs of stone unknown today now stand.”

Ozymandias
Crumbling to dust and blown away
Tell me how long did forever last
Once living lifeless thing
Your mocking hand and nothing beside remains

“Round the decay of the once great king a feeding heart seeks prey.
‘Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!’
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

Ozymandias
Crumbling to dust and blown away
Tell me how long did forever last
Once living lifeless thing
Your mocking hand and nothing beside remains

Not one more word was spoken, the traveler’s tale was done
And the sun had set near full the way
The moon rose from the wind swept waves of the desert dunes
Humming a tune that all will know as true when nothing beside remains.
