Lyrics
Blessed gods, cold stars
Release me from my long suffering
Anxious, weary, my mind wracked by fears unnatural
I scan the horizon, watching, hoping for signs of the signal fire
Great gift of Prometheus
Reward me with the news that Troy has finally fallen
It is she who commands me thus to remain
Upon this palace roof, watching, waiting
That willful, calculating woman who plots and schemes like a king
No sleep, no dreams
Only fear descends upon my couch
And ravishes my heart
With sorrow and fear for what's become of this house
Once so great, lost and cold
Hungry spirits stalk these halls
Still I keep my faith and pray for our release
From all this suffering
You there, at last, conquest, great blaze of triumph
I greet thee, I honor thee
Most welcome visitor from the depths of the night
Rape the sky like a royal sun
Turn this mournful night into shining day
Awake, queen of Agamemnon, rise from thy sleep
Cry the morning song of victory
For the kingdom of Ilion has fallen
The god of fire proclaims it so
We'll reap this harvest of flame
Give thanks and pay tribute to the deities that made us
Oh, let it be so, let our fleet return in honor
Overlord, Poseidon's sea, safe from wind and storm
Let me stand before my king
Pledge him sword and life for his glory
I've already lost my voice, no more from me now
Yet if this house could speak, what a tale it could tell
Of savage murder, betrayal, rabid obesity
And a daemon with an unquenchable thirst for blood and torn flesh
No, no more from me, let action speak, awake
