Time and Tide

Music: Viktor Jonas | lyrics: Andy Walmsley

I have seen the old gods die
I have seen their idols crumble
I have seen new gods arise
From the ashes and the rubble
I have witnessed, I have seen…

The death of our hopes, the death of our dreams, all of our great works collapsing
And oh what fools we have been, thinking this would last

Empires rise, and empires fall, time and tide make fools of us all
And the best laid plans of mice and men all come to nothing in the end
Both the wicked and the divine must fall before the march of time

As it was written, so it will be done
Let history remember, that nothing lasts forever

Empires rise, and so does the tide
Only to fall again in time
