about

Ozymandias est interprèté par Bryan Cranston et fut écrit par l'auteur Percy Bysshe Shelley et publié en 1818.

lyrics

"I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: "Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read,
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed,
And on the pedestal these words appear:
'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, Ye Mighty, and despair!'


Walking side by side they came out of nowhere.
Burning from the inside they're trying to get me.
The only place I can be is far from these cities.
It ruined my life.

Running away, I carry the weight and they can't understand
Why it happened, out of the dust.
They try to learn, they try so hard.

Reached by death's touch they realise there's no way out.
Trees grow so fast then burn to ashes
I've been chased in a land of misery.
This forest is too dense, I try to find somewhere to rise.

I look up to the sky, help me I'm breathless.
Give me a hand I'm falling on my knees.
They destroy every part of my empty soul.
I'm trying to escape but fear seizes me

This forest has no end, I will not fall down from this cliff

Their screams are so loud I can't even think
I will not pay for all the mistakes they say I made
This is how it goes in this life, in this world
People never show their true faces

Our lives are so miserable.
Trees grow so fast, they raise from their ashes
This forest will swallow us all.


"Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away."
