[Verse]
The fire once roared now a flickering light
A tribe so proud now lost to the night
Few voices remain whispers on the breeze
Echoes of greatness swallowed by the seas
[Verse 2]
The scars on the earth tell tales of their fight
The half-castes wander shadows of their might
With every step they tread on ancient ground
But the songs they sing are a mournful sound
[Chorus]
Oh fading flame of a once great name
The winds they howl but they’re not to blame
The stories crumble like the cliffs on the shore
What was once a kingdom is forever no more
[Verse 3]
The elders’ eyes hold a thousand years
They’ve seen the rise they’ve wept the tears
The young ones walk with a weight they bear
A fractured legacy in the thinning air
[Bridge]
The stars above still shine the same
But down below there’s a broken frame
A puzzle scattered lost to time
A people’s heartbeats out of rhyme
[Chorus]
Oh fading flame of a once great name
The winds they howl but they’re not to blame
The stories crumble like the cliffs on the shore
What was once a kingdom is forever no more |
