Lyrics

The empire is crumbling
From the inside out
Don’t come crawling to me
When your heart is empty and you’re filled up with doubt

Well the jig is up
The curtain did fall
I could see that before
When we thought we loved but we never really had it all

The flames engulf us
From flickers to full gusts
We sit in our broken homes
As they warn us we’re likely to drown,
while it’s all burning down

The tinder’s assembled
We helped pile it up
I shout with a fresh lit match
As you gas us from up above

The flames engulf us
From flickers to full gusts
We sit in our broken homes
As they warn us we’re likely to drown,
while it’s all burning down

When the embers have blown away
The scorched earth feels soft and gray
We can’t see eye to eye
While we shout about blindly in night

The flames engulf us
From flickers to full gusts
We sit in our broken homes
As they warn us we’re likely to drown,
while it’s all burning down
