Gilgamesh

[Intro] [Verse 1] Born of clay, with a king's blood in his veins Gilgamesh, ruler, with power untamed Walls of Uruk, built by his hand But glory hung heavy, across the whole land [Chorus] He searched for life everlasting, a quest to transcend Breaking the chains of the mortal end Through mountains and deserts, his journey did wend The hero of Epic, a legend to ascend! [Verse 2] Enkidu, his rival, a creature of wild Turned brother in arms, a loyalty mild Together they faced down the Humbaba beast Their courage unrivalled, a legendary feat [Chorus] They searched for life everlasting, a quest to transcend Breaking the chains of the mortal end Through cedar forests, their journey did extend The heroes of Epic, a legend to defend! [Break] [Solo] [Bridge] Ishtar the goddess, with beauty untold Offered her love, a story to unfold But Gilgamesh refused, his spirit so bold There's more to this life, than stories of old [Chorus] He searched for life everlasting, a secret to find Breaking the chains of the body and mind Through lands of the underworld, his spirit entwined The hero of ages, forever enshrined [Chorus] He searched for life everlasting, a secret to find Breaking the chains of the body and mind Through lands of the underworld, his spirit entwined The hero of ages, forever enshrined [Outro] Though mortal like us, his legend won't fade Gilgamesh, the king, a hero unfazed His journey inspires, a courage displayed In the face of all hardship, a spirit unafraid [BigFinish] [FadeOut]
