about

Classical Song: Asturias (Leyenda) by Isaac Albéniz. Written/published in 1892.

lyrics

A cloak of treason, your stolen season
You have your reasons
For letting the world burn

Choose who you forgive, choose who gets to live
Who knows your motives
Everyone is gonna learn

We’re too big to fail, dogs are on the trail
The truth is for sale
Talking up your latest stunt

This wound’s infected, treatment’s rejected
Play disaffected
Sneering it’s all a witch hunt

And it tasted oh so sweet
Now your victory lap’s headed south
When your enemy’s defeat
Turns to ashes in your lying mouth

We came apart just like you planned
A house divided makes no demands
No going forward, you’re out of track
So few left willing to watch your back

Your castle’s crumbling, your soldiers stumbling
The end is coming
The end is coming
