Letra de Decline and Fall

Comparatively peaceful warfare
Masked by political strife
Increasingly arbitrary decisions
And capricious behaviour
Alienation
Decline and fall
A unique status as a source of god like power
Reinforcing the image as a demigod
Stressed his own personal uniqueness
Tendencies now increased to haughty proportions
Ineffable sense of destiny
Outstanding achievements
Delusions of grandeur
Desire to conquer the world
Alienation
Decline and fall
Lustful and cruel habits
Became second nature
From a kingdom of gold
To one of iron and rust
Decline and fall
Consolidation of power
Began a reign of terror
Brutal misrule provokes civil strife
Lapsing into insanity
They formed a conspiracy
To supplant him from the throne
Contribute to his assassination
Declared a public enemy
A unique status as a source of god like power
Reinforcing the image as a demigod
Stressed his own personal uniqueness
Tendencies now increased to haughty proportions
Consolidation of power
Began a reign of terror
Brutal misrule provokes civil strife
Lapsing into insanity
