-To Queen...

...One of the greatest rock bands.




Who dares to live forever?

Who dares to brave an eternity?

Who dares bridge the ages

Cross the boundaries of life

Do what no man has done before?


Will it be you?

Will you see everything you love

Everything

you hold dear to your heart

Crumble, erased?

Your culture

Your identity

Your youth and your country

Gone, faded, lost forever.

Never to be returned.

Swallowed by the giant which fells forests,

Wears whole mountains down

And dries the rivers and the streams forevermore...

Time

It waits for nobody

And if you wish to defy it...


Then I wish you good luck

And I bid you farewell.



This was actually for a writing competition, but I cannot for the life of me remember what the topic was. Ah well. Oh yeah, see if you can find the references to TWO of Queen's/Freddy Mercury's songs. The first one's pretty obvious, kilt baddie swords. The second one needs a little more thinking.
