Ozymandias

from The Misery March by Hangman's Hymn

/

lyrics

The sand sweeps fierce across a face
That shattered in the desert lies
And that for years without a trace
Was buried far from prying eyes
Hidden from view, yet glaring still
Its stony mouth twisted awry
Faintly mutters prayers ill
Up unto a barren sky:
“I am Ozymandias, King of Kings
These great works here do testify
My might did soar on the Sun’s wings
Above a realm that shall not die…”
Yet no one hears the head decree
Its promise in empty expanse
Long gone the land and masonry
And on its might... falls not one glance.
