One Man War Band - Epitaph

Grand visions, tearing at the seams of his mind
With swelling grandeur are realised
His swords are sharper
His steel harder
His mind more focused
Than all his enemies combined
His army's better
His soldiers tempered with an iron discipline
That only devotion in full provides
And with the promise of submission or death
He vanquished his foes
Established an empire in his control
Accepting all creeds and religions under his rule
Sets out to conquer the world

Was he cut down in war, or to disease did he succumb?
Did he fall from his horse, or was he murdered by a loved one?
Clouded by time the nature of his passing has become
His kin take him home, he'll rest at last whence he was born

His kin take him home, he'll rest at last whence he was born
His kin take him home, he'll rest at last whence he was born
His kin take him home, he'll rest at last whence he was born
His kin take him home, he'll rest at last whence he was born

He retires to the Eternal Blue Sky
His spirit watching what his dreams become
His body rests, deep within the sacred ground
The mountains his headstone, the homeland his tomb

(The mountains his headstone, the homeland his tomb)
(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb!

The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb!

(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb!

(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb-!

(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb!
(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb-
(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb-
(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb-
(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)
(The mountains his headstone; the homeland his tomb)...
