Midnight Walker - Empires Rise and Empires Fall Lyrics

Through the mist and the cannon's fire
I pushed onward, never to tire
From the Rhine to the Danube's flow
My reign expanded, blow by blow
From the sands of Egypt to Europe's heart
I led my men, played my part
Victory tasted sweet, ambition grew
Lessons were learned, and battles ensued
Empires rise, and Empires fall
But I will stand, through it all
I'm like an eagle, flying high
My fate is to never die
Empires rise, and Empires fall
My power rises, to conquer all
From Toulon's ports to Moscow's cold
I led my troops, brave and bold
Prussians crumbled, Austrians too
My ambition soared, my spirit true
Empires rise, and Empires fall
But I will stand, through it all
I'm like an eagle, flying high
My fate is to never die
Empires rise, and Empires fall
My power rises, to conquer all
Through the battles and the storms
I held on, I was reborn
In the ashes, in the flame
I carved out my own name
Waterloo was my final stand
My pride became my downfall's hand
Exiled to Elba, a brief retreat
But even in loss, my story's complete
Empires rise, and Empires fall
But I will stand, through it all
I'm like an eagle, flying high
My fate is to never die
Empires rise, and Empires fall
My power rises, to conquer all
In the quiet of the night
I dream of battles, and I fight
In my heart, I feel the flame
A reminder of my name
History writes, heroes fade
But legends live, they're never made
Empires rise, and Empires fall
Yet I remain, standing tall
Empires rise, and Empires fall
But I will stand, through it all
I'm like an eagle, flying high
My fate is to never die
Empires rise, and Empires fall
My power rises, to conquer all
