about

i went to war for you! hell, i started the revolution for you. i turned the world on its back for you, as menelaus did for helen.

i long ago turned off the feelings. the righteousness took over. there was no vengeance to be had; only sacrifice and martyrdom. i vowed to not give up so easily… next time.

lyrics

my Corsican Rose
daughter of the revolution
we brought it on ourselves
through our evolution

i adopted your sires
you fueled my fires
we thought that we had found
the final solution

you were my queen
my Josephine
you were everything
I had conquered in dreams

my exile destroyed us
split us in two
oceans apart
and we were no longer true

i had no son
or daughter by you
my empress, my Rose,
my Waterloo

we had other lovers
but none like each other
in the end there was nothing
this ruler could do

my Corsican Rose
daughter of the revolution
we brought it on ourselves
through our evolution
