Lyrics

Uruk

[Verse]

In a sumerian king way

She laid the foundation stone

And took the road to Uruk

On the back of a wild bull

A peaceful and silent way

To infinity she's gone

An epic enter the loop

On the back of a wild bull

At the calm and cold morn

When the world was still asleep

She came to the plain of Uruk

What's holy can't fade away
