“Cleopatra (Queen of the Empire’s Edge)”

(Verse 1) Black kohl eyes in the desert night, Silver snakes catch firelight, She walks through the ages, wild and free, A queen reborn in anarchy. Velvet throne turned to steel and flame, She breaks the rules, rewrites the game, No Pharaoh crown, just leather and pride, She built her kingdom, never denied. ( Pre-Chorus) Lipstick warpaint, gold and red, She whispers, “Baby, I’m undead,” From Nile sands to the crowd’s loud roar — She’s been here before! (Chorus) Cleopatra! Queen of the empire’s edge, Dancing on the ruins, heart full of revenge! Oh Cleopatra! She don’t bow, she don’t bleed, Rockin’ through eternity — the rebel you’ll never defeat! (Verse 2) She’s got lovers, soldiers, stars in chains, Rome burned down whisperin’ her name, She played the game, made Caesar fall, Then lit the fuse and took it all. Snakebite kiss, electric sin, History fades when she walks in, A revolution wrapped in silk and scars, She’s the goddess of the guitars! (Pre-Chorus) Desert wind, the drums still pound, Her shadow shakes the sacred ground, She’s not a myth — she’s a scream — A wild, eternal dream! (Chorus) Cleopatra! Queen of the empire’s edge, Dancing on the ruins, heart full of revenge! Oh Cleopatra! She don’t bow, she don’t bleed, Rockin’ through eternity — the rebel you’ll never defeat! (Bridge) (spoken / snarled Billy Idol style) “Yeah! Don’t talk to me ‘bout history, baby — I am the mystery. Crown me in fire, drown me in gold, I’ll rise from the ashes — bold, uncontrolled!” (Desert storm guitar solo — heavy tremolo, echo, and grit) ( Final Chorus , gang vocals + handclaps) Cleopatra! (Hey hey!) Queen of the empire’s edge! (Yeah yeah!) She’s the serpent, the flame, the lover, the rage! Oh Cleopatra! (Whoa-oh!) No chain can set her free — ‘Cause she already rules eternity! (Outro) She fades in smoke and starlit skies, Whispers echo, power never dies — “History’s mine… and I’m still alive.” (Desert wind + fading guitar riff)
