The Fountain Behind the Setting Son

All my holy grievances 
will take lifetimes to avenge
My fallen brother’s wail
Tell of horrors at the end


At the twin peaked valley
the scorpions heard my plea
Now I beg of you direction
A beast you think of me? 


CHORUS
Civilized? Ma’am, I've civilized
I left the power of its fame for this garden past the sky
I'll cheat death before this day is done
At the fountain behind the setting sun


I'm running through the sunset
To the man who never died
Some ancient mystic mariner
Who the gods immortalized


CHORUS


Bridge
Won't you Give me safe crossing
Beyond this wicked sea
Enlighten my desires
Won't you release me
To the other side 
satisfy my pride


*inspired by Gilgamesh
