Empires Laid Waste

歌詞

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
