From the recording The Death of Leaders
Lyrics
[Verse I]
He rose like fire from Macedon’s flame
Son of thunder, carved the world in his name
From the Nile to the edge of the sky
No sword could touch him, no god denied
He drank with kings and conquered stars
Built his throne on broken czars
But in the end, the war is cold—
Even Titans break and fold
[Pre-Chorus]
Immortal dreams rot in mortal veins
The wine is blood, the glory pain
He touched the heavens, kissed the flame—
And fell back down with none to blame!
[Chorus I]
Alexander! Your crown is dust!
Your empire fades in death and rust
One world! One will! One dying breath!
Even gods must kneel to death!
Alexander! You dared too far—
Now burn, bright ghost, like a falling star!
[Verse II]
A fever burned in Babylon’s breath
The Lion choked in a silent death
No blade, no foe, no storm, no spear—
But the poison whisper in his ear
A curse for kings, too proud to see
That none outrun eternity
His generals weep, then tear the land
The world he forged slips through their hands
[Bridge]
“To whom do you leave your empire?”
He smiled with hollow eyes...
“To the strongest...”
[Breakdown]
Rotten gold in shattered thrones
The king is gone, but the war goes on
No peace for gods who dared to dream
The greatest fall with the loudest screams!
[Chorus II]
Alexander! Your crown is dust!
Your empire fades in death and rust
One world! One will! One dying breath!
Even gods must kneel to death!
Alexander! The stars grow cold—
But your legend burns, defiant and bold!
[Outro]
He died not on the battlefield,
But in the silence, all men must yield
No sword could break what time could claim—
The ghost of glory… still speaks his name.
