SIGN OF THE SWORD
SIGN OF THE CROSS
LORD OF BOTH MAN AND BEAST
ORTHODOX BYZANTINE KING
BEHIND THEODOSIAN WALLS
SURROUNDED BY THE SEA
THE LAST ROMAN THRONE
BASTION OF OLD ROME
THE TWO HEADED EAGLE
DESPOT OF MOREA
BY STEEL AND PROCLAMATION
EMPEROR WITHOUT AN HEIR
SURVIVED BY PLAGUE
HORSEMAN LANCE & ARROW
BY HARVEST AND BY FAMINE
GREEK FIRE & GUN POWDER

MISFORTUNE TO YOU
CITY OF SEVEN HILLS
A SCOURGE AT THE GATES
SHADOW UPON THE CROSS
THE FLIGHT OF CROWS
OF CROWS
12th LETTER UPON
RAMPARTS
MAELSTROM OF BLACK
BLACK SMOKE
FINAL DESTROYERS
OF ROME
VIGILS IN THE WIND
ANGELIC APPARITIONS
PROPHETIC RUIN
IS VAST APPROACHING
FIRE IN THE
MOONLIGHT
PORTENTS TO
THE APOCALYPSE
OUR ARMS, OUR RAMPARTS,
OUR SHIELDS
CANTOR'S TO THY DOOM
UNTO THY DOOM
GENERATIONS HELD FAST
ALL FEARS SOON LAY BARE
WITHIN THIS OLDEN WOMB
OMINOUS SIGNS AND ILL OMENS
THE SKY DID RAIN
TORMENT
THY VIRGIN DID MEET
THE EARTH
THE MOON DID JOIN
THE SUN
THE CRESCENT DID CLAIM
THE CRESCENT DID CLAIM THE DAWN

Fortified
by The Eagle
By both Land and Sea
By both Man and Beast
Vigilant,
yet wrought,
by Siege
wrought by siege
Both Justinian Sword
Horsemen's Lance
Byzantium Towers
This Christian Lamb
Bombarded By Mortar
Battlements Tested
One Thousand Years Standing
One Thousand Years Met
Fortified by the eagle
By both land and sea
By both man and beast
Broken not by Cannon
nor by Sea or Fire
But by a throng of soldiers
And a gate ignored
One thousand years standing
One thousand years met
One thousand years standing
One thousand years met

Fire and Death Assailed
Here are the Spoils of War
Here the Crescent had Crowned
3 Days of Plunder
Consumed by Fire
For The Orthodox Did Burn
The Fall of Byzantium
By Rite of Conquest
Gold from a Western God
Suffering of his Women
Chains for their Children
The Earth for their Fathers
The Sultan of Two Lands
Cesar of the Roman's
The Khan of Two Seas
The Father of Conquest
Fire and death assailed
here are the spoils of war

TO RISE FROM ASHES
BUILD UPON THE OLD
CHIME THE BELL TODAY
TILL THE EARTH ANEW
MORE SAILS TO THE WIND
BRICKS TO THE MORTAR
NAILS TO ITS TIMBER
NEW CITY REBORN
THE TIME OF THIRD ROME
THE INHERITORS
QUELL THE DARK AGES
TIME OF RENAISSANCE
OUT OF THE DARKNESS
BECAME THE DAWNING
OF THE MODERN WORLD
