Lyrics

Face down Convalescence isn’t coming back around See the overwhelming odds are plowing down this Wasted society In anarchy Nameless In a moment marked by decadence The truth is Only one percent of everyone owns everything The struggling Die with outstretched hands Damned as the fires burn Intoxication let down While the masses scream Barbarians ‘n slavery Lead poisoning All resulting in resounding loss Corruption in bureaucracy Drove the people to exact equality The flames sparked by hypocrisy Burned away at absolute authority -AS ROME IS BURNING DOWN- Let down As the white robes fled The streets are littered with the Bodies of the dead ‘n of the dying Crying… out in pain Just who is to blame Was it those in power - those with everything? Or was it those who did nothing but follow blindly Absence of veracity Condemns fully As history shows - what we’re doing now Will be looked down upon by future centuries That’s if we live that long it’s all repeating thus far This isn’t a democracy The people’s voices do not carry Elected by majority Will only result in calamity -AS ROME IS BURNING DOWN-
