When Heroes Fall

[Andromache]
As the sun falls today
As the moonlight veils the sky
I gaze upon the plain
I see Ilium cry in vain
O Gods above!
You take it all
The Earth now is silent and void

It happened yesterday
The clash of shield and blade
A sound of thunder came
And took my life away
The night sky
It seems so dark
Though heroes have fallen
And rise to the stars

Beyond the pyre's bright light
The wind lifts your ashes from the earth
Euterpe echoes your legend
And takes it forever in the wind

[Achilles]
As the sun falls today
And the sea reflects the light
The plains are empty now
As the pyres reach the sky
O Gods above
Why should we fall?
Is Olympus also in mourn?

Beyond the pyre's bright light
The wind lifts your ashes from the earth

[Andromache]
(From the earth)

[Achilles]
Euterpe echoes your legend
And takes it forever in the wind

[Andromache]
(In the wind)

[Andromache and Muses]
Beyond the pyre's bright light
The wind lifts your ashes
From the earth

[Achilles]
(From the earth)

[Andromache]
Euterpe echoes your legend
And takes it forever in the wind

[Achilles]
Forever by the wind

[Achilles and Andromache]
Beyond the pyre's bright light
The wind lifts your ashes from the earth
Euterpe echoes your legend
And takes it forever in the wind
