His soul's escaping while his army is breaking
This land is mine for the taking, make me King
As we move toward a gory border
A content life is boring but leading factions is
Close to post-mortem, this war is not bloodless
His prestige is huge, he's proud but loves justice
The council's all on him, coast to coast wars
He's known as Augustus, lonely roads
Gods only know he's grown farther from home on his slaughter
Doubts beset him about his own daughter
Gone into hiding to thwart unknown plotters
His vassals don't want him no more, he's a tyrant
They moved on to the next title claimant
With faction power, and so the old saga
Is told, it unfolds, I suppose it's old, pater
But the beat goes on, da-da dum da-dum da-da
You better
