"Once Upon a Time"
Montezuma, the gods came to you
as half beast and half man
Borne on the winds of fate
they set upon your lands
You showered them with gifts of gold
to try and stay their hand
Yet they kept coming ever closer
with more and more demands
Quetzequotal, great god on high help us
Montezuma, what happeded to you
you simply couldnt comprehend
That Cortez and his band of brigands
were nothing more than men
Bound and frozen by chains of myth
you couldnt take a stand
Forced to bow against your will
your empire turned to sand
Great god that shakes the earth save us
How could this happen to you the greatest of them all
Surely the son of heaven, certainly to fall
On the altar of a new faith, the hand of destiny
Calling out with all of its weight
the way that its shall be
Montezuma
Montezuma, we still see you
through the eye of history
As a great man in a great land
caught up in a tragedy
Fought by men of wealth and power
from lands across the sea
Where nothing is sacred and all is empty
where greed is allmighty
Great god of mountain fire save us
How could this happen to you the greatest of them all
Surely the son of heaven, certainly to fall
On the altar of a new faith, the hand of destiny
Calling out with all of its weight
the way that its shall be
