Empires Laid To Waste |
I can’t prolong the inevitable anymore… |
The hidden empire inside our hearts |
We built, we burnt, and we laid… we laid waste |
To every dream and we gave flight to this ending |
It’s so hard to turn around |
Without even understanding the fall… |
To break our wings, to burn our dreams |
I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, fear, and regret! |
Set fire to the way we were and forget everything |
Set fire to the way we were and forget everything |
When every stone is turned |
When every stone is turned looking for an escape |
There’s not too much left anyway |
There’s only so far you can travel with stars in your eyes |
The hidden empire inside our hearts |
We built, we burnt, and we laid… we laid waste |
To every dream and we gave flight to this ending |
It’s so hard to turn around |
Without even understanding the fall… |
There’s only so far you can travel with stars in your eyes |
Before you burn them out and lose sight |
Before you break down |
Before you break down and take it all in your stride |
A life lost, and the fall of an empire |
