You build your domain with such power
Bit by bit until you're finishing your last tower
Strength fed by determination as destructive as fire
As you force this world to reach higher and higher
Your people, they cower in the horrors you've built
You pave over nature until even the sturdiest flowers wilt
Still you search for a source that can keep the rebels in check
Treating the helpless like worthless little specks
What happened to compassion, to the people who care?
They hang low at the gallows or sit in cells world stripped bare
Mingling with criminals as their mind becomes a play thing
Staying silent as the grave, listen as the old robin sings
So watch close my dear little tyrant of eras long past
Watch as you reign crumbles the people free at last
Don't worry though, your memory will continue to live on
Remembered for the injustice and all who you have wronged
