歌词
[Verse 1]
In ancient lands of Sicily,
A man of thought and mystery,
Empedocles, his name did rise,
With wisdom deep and searching eyes.
[Pre-Chorus]
Declared himself a god divine,
No longer bound by mortal time.
[Chorus]
Oh, Empedocles, your leap was bold,
Into the flames, your story told.
To prove your soul was made of light,
You vanished in the dark of night.
[Verse 2]
Mount Etna's fire, a test of might,
To show the world your endless light.
The people watched, in awe and fear,
As you approached the fiery sphere.
[Pre-Chorus]
With confidence, you took your stand,
To prove the power of mortal man.
[Chorus]
Oh, Empedocles, your leap was bold,
Into the flames, your story told.
To prove your soul was made of light,
You vanished in the dark of night.
[Bridge]
The legend speaks of smoke and flame,
Of how you sought eternal fame.
Yet mortal flesh, it could not stay,
And so you left this world that day.
[Chorus]
Oh, Empedocles, your leap was bold,
Into the flames, your story told.
To prove your soul was made of light,
You vanished in the dark of night.
[Verse 3]
Diogenes, the scribe of old,
He penned the tale, his words so bold.
And Horace too, in poems did write,
Of your brave leap into the night.
[Pre-Chorus]
Immortalized in verse and lore,
Your story lives forevermore.
[Chorus]
Oh, Empedocles, your leap was bold,
Into the flames, your story told.
To prove your soul was made of light,
You vanished in the dark of night.
[Verse 4]
A philosopher with thoughts so grand,
You left your mark upon this land.
Though flames consumed your mortal frame,
Your legacy remains the same.
[Pre-Chorus]
A testament to human pride,
To seek the truth, to not hide.
[Chorus]
Oh, Empedocles, your leap was bold,
Into the flames, your story told.
To prove your soul was made of light,
You vanished in the dark of night.
[Verse 5]
From Mount Etna’s fiery breath,
You sought to conquer even death.
A symbol of the quest for more,
Your name resounds in ancient lore.
[Pre-Chorus]
With courage high and spirit free,
You leapt into eternity.
[Chorus]
Oh, Empedocles, your leap was bold,
Into the flames, your story told.
To prove your soul was made of light,
You vanished in the dark of night.
To prove your soul was made of light,
You vanished in the dark of night.
[Verse 6]
In Sicily's air, your whispers dwell,
A tale of boldness time will tell.
Philosopher, with courage grand,
You took a leap, made your stand.
[Pre-Chorus]
A legacy that will endure,
Of mortal quest, so strong, so pure.
[Chorus]
Oh, Empedocles, your leap was bold,
Into the flames, your story told.
To prove your soul was made of light,
You vanished in the dark of night.
[End]
