Lyrics
My dearest friend
Of noble birth
Shall we now lie
Upon the earth?
My heart, my love
Rest with me here
Come share your dreams
Your hopes and fears
My name is formed
From sorrow and grief
A story of choice
A tale of belief
A sharpening point
Across battle lines
Character forged
Praised as divine
Born of desire
The gods will be heard
Born from the Styx
To challenge the world
The brightest stars will die
A future I cannot deny
Crossing an endless sea
Toward my destiny
A doomed prophecy
Waiting for me
Or live in peace
No hero’s release
Fame to be won
I must decide
My purpose is clear
Take glory or hide
I speak to the ghosts
The dead lie in wait
I’ll join them soon
That is my fate
The brightest stars will die
A future I cannot deny
Crossing an endless sea
Toward my destiny
Remembering
Our golden years
Cloak red with blood
Achilles’ tears
My friend and love
Of noble birth
Now we both lie
Deep in the earth
