the futile quest - anachronaeon lyrics
you all wish that you could leave a trace
oblivion will devour the human race
a tyrant dies, another tyrant takes the throne
a historic triumph is carved into a stone
blood is shed to obtain domination
but death is watching through the eyes of a future king
you all wish that you could leave a trace
oblivion will devour the human race
the sun will die down – all will be lost
the achievements that you made at any cost
behold! your buildings are falling to the ground
let this be told! your head is removed without a sound
history repeats itself! another tyrant claims your throne
memento mori! now you are nothing but a pile of bones
the lives you destroyed, the things you did
was it worth a name in the human history
the life your lived, always watching your back
paranoid – just waiting for the next attack
[chorus:]
dreams of greed will blind you
and know that death will find you
though mankind will never see
it’s a futile quest for immortality
your father died and you inherited his business
you feel you have to prove him wrong even in death
you treat your staff like sh-t, just to make an extra buck
you must be proud of what you have become
you all wish that you could leave a trace
oblivion will devour the human race
behold! your empire is falling, your stocks are worthless
let this be told! your failure is doc-mented in the press
history repeats itself! a ruthless businessman takes your place
memento mori! in the end we’ll all become a pile of bones
the lives you destroyed, the things you did
was it worth a name in the human history
the life your lived, never looking back
obsessed by proving yourself to your dad
[chorus:]
dreams of greed will blind you
and know that death will find you
though mankind will never see
it’s a futile quest for immortality
