The original Pyrrhic victory came courtesy of Pyrrhus of Epirus, a Greek king who was undone by his costly battles against the Romans. Pyrrhus first invaded Italy in 280 B.C. after allying himself with Tarentum, a Greek-speaking city that resented the Roman Republic’s increased domination over their homeland. He arrived with a force of some 25,000 men and 20 war elephants—the first the Roman legionaries had ever faced—and immediately scored a famous victory in his first battle at Heraclea. The following year, he bested the Romans a second time during a heated clash at Asculum.

Pyrrhus fancied himself a latter day Alexander the Great, and he’d hoped his invasion would give his empire a foothold in Italy. But while he’d routed the Romans at both Heraclea and Asculum, he had also lost more than 7,500 of his most elite fighters, including many officers. Pyrrhus had no way of replacing his casualties, and his failure to deal the enemy a deathblow sent morale plummeting within his ranks. According to the ancient historian Plutarch, the warrior king was quoted as muttering, “If we are victorious in one more battle with the Romans, we shall be utterly ruined.” Following a setback at the Battle of Beneventum in 275 B.C., he reluctantly called off his campaign and sailed back to Greece.

PYRRHIC VICTORY

Caviar and cigarettes
Dances in pirouettes

Are you feeling good
It seems you should
Now the smoke has cleared
Now that you are feared

Your triumph is great
Are you ready for your fate
Cause for elation
A grand celebration

Oh, it doesn’t feel right
Oh, this dishonorable plight 

Caviar and cigarettes
Dances in pirouettes
Glitter, riches, fame and glam
Black tie Russian roulette

You lick your wounds
All your lovers are gone
Alone in your palace
Your light has shone

All your friends in flight
All your allies are foes
It’s not an end
The start of your woes

Caviar and cigarettes
Dances in pirouettes
Glitter, riches, fame and glam
Black tie Russian roulette

Pyrrhic Victory

LYRICS:

At any moment on any day
A little friction can wipe us all away
In times of trouble, in times of strife
Spare no expense 'cause the price is human life
They come to conquer like they were God's own hand
And set the world ablaze to seize a little land

And everything going down is nothing but disaster
And transgressions of humanity
And everything taking shape is nothing short of wrongful
And crimes that echo in the pages of history

At any moment on any day
The clock strikes midnight and all goes down in flames
To meet ambition with vile atrocity
And piss on notions of all diplomacy
And all hell rains down, the wolf is at your door
Hope no one sees what you're compensating for

And everything going down is nothing but disaster
And transgressions of humanity
And everything taking shape is nothing short of wrongful
And crimes that echo in the pages of history

You want it, you got it
You have upset the balance
You want it, you got it
The world is in a bind
It's all just self defense
We've heard that lie before
A brain dead juggernaut
You're not the only one
You want it, you got it
You got the whole world watching
You want it, you got it
Looks like you've gone insane
Affront to everyone
To your own people too
One minute to midnight
It's all because of you

Minute To Midnight

There are so many things that should not be: 70s Disco Strings and 80s video game chirps? It was time for them to meet 

Return of the Disco Strings

(In the Springtime of his discontent, how the husty lunger was upon him. His solvent wraith, projected into the higher ether. How was he too know? That his shadow was rooting into the nightmare latitudes to lay with the terror of all things. That the third lung would attack him, straight through till Winter.)

     ...

I've got alot to hold,
deep down here in the mold,
me and my damaged brain,
still trying to explain,
I've got alot to hold,
I've got alot to...

I cannot walk the walk,
I cannot talk the talk,
me and my damaged brain,
(and it's glitching)
still trying to explain,
(and it's itching)
I've got alot to hold,
I've got alot to,
I've got alot to...
