Sinking City -

Watching this city of silence

Until the church bells start their concert

They violate the moment

When I should start my journey below…

Devoured by the caves that crumble

Into themselves they collapse

Pressured by the city above

Slowly the pillars will yield and take me down…

So many stories of it I have heard

They are still echoing somehow

Sinking city with the gates of gold

Descending through the sand and sea

Riches of the empire

Left here for all to see

If I would die in this sinking city

Please bury me to the island of death…
