I will use this to defend and destroy
All the world will fall someday
And I shall remain, your Helen of Troy.
The rivers in this land flow with blood
The blood of men or monsters I do not know
I do not recognise the signs of the living
By the towns they build or the crops they sow.
I have not always walked this wilderness alone
I have seduced men and women, both pretty and poor
I have created nations and watched as they fall
I have built great armies and lead them to war
But all of these things have faded away
And now I seek a possession of great renown.
I have cut down frauds and disbelievers alike
For one day I will wear 'happiness' as my crown.
