"Persepolis" lyrics - SEPTICFLESH

[Verse 1: Spiros Antoniou, Sotiris Vayenas & Both]
Flutes and pipes play a drunken rhyme
Entertaining the soldiers in the palace
Naked bodies, female slaves from Asia (Naked bodies)
Dance with promise for a night of pleasure (Dance with promise)
Mouths smell wine, the feast is going wild
Victorious and glorious, the men exalt their king
As in a fevered dream, Thais is entering
And she provokes him to do a special deed

[Verse 2: Spiros Antoniou]
You have conquered the capital of orient
Display your power and make your enemies weep
Destroy their pride, the jewel of the desert
As they once destroyed our temples for their king

[Bridge: Spiros Antoniou]
Burn this city to the ground
Take a torch and spread the fire
Burn this city to the ground
Take a torch and spread the fire

[Chorus: Spiros Antoniou]
Persepolis, now a pile of dust
A blackened carcass, a land of ash
Persepolis, you lost your crown
Persepolis, burned to the ground
Consumed by hate, ablaze by pride
Persepolis, naked as the sand
Persepolis, you lost your crown
Persepolis, burned to the ground
Persepolis, you lost your crown
Persepolis, burned to the ground

[Outro: Spiros Antoniou]
Burn this city to the ground
Take a torch and set the fire
Burn this city to the ground
Take a torch and set the fire
