Caamora - History lyrics

Ayesha: We live a life cocooned Sheltered from the glaring gaze of outside nations So tell me of your world My mind is overflowing with such questions Holly: I am your servant I only ask that in return you look to my friend Ayesha: Then offer me your insight The human race as through your eyes And I will trend to him Holly: In many ways so much has happened Since you started here Armies march across the sand Explorers sail to foreign lands How could I describe the vital impact Of each pa**ing year? Wars are fought and peace is made Power comes and power fades Egypt is still standing But changing all the while The Persians and the Romans Have held sway upon the Nile But Empires come and go They arrive then take their leave Falling victim to corruption And blinded by their greed History is written by victorious and driven people Cities rise and fall again to conquerors and mighty heroes Time has watched to wonder At the colours of an ever-changing world In many ways so much has happened In two thousand years Strange inventions fill our lives A testament to changing times Then a leader walks amongst us But his motives are unclear Until he turns upon his friends Committing crimes beyond defense Philosophies and politics Bring different kinds of status The works of famous authors The visions of the painter And sounds have been created Beyond anything you know Bringing beauty to the mind As it feeds the human soul The thunder of an orchestra A sensual crescendo Of melody and harmony A constant ebb and flow History is written by victorious and driven people Cities rise and fall again to conquerors and mighty heroes Time has watched to wonder At the colours of an ever-changing world History runs in circles And it's out of our control Every battle mankind wins There's a consequence to take its toll We may think we're modern But however thing appear At heart we have not changed at all In these two thousand years History is written by victorious and driven people Cities rise and fall again to conquerors and mighty heroes Time has watched to wonder At the colours of an ever-changing world
