"Empire's Demise" lyrics

"Empire's Demise"

We are crabs in a barrel
You yearn for the capital
Desire to be hired
They pull you down and trample you
Sold you a dream
A dream of equality
Social upheaval
A notion of yesterday
No one revolts a martyr they don't wanna be
I still exist as long as I live
I'll exist

We're throwing bombs
Don't care where they land
I'll leave you left
Right
Left
Right
Right where you stand
We're throwing bombs
Don't care where they land
I'll leave you left
Right
Left
Right
Destroying your land

In the time of double talk
We always let the bullshit walk
Can't decipher the truth
Gotta rethink what we thought we knew
Lies uttered with tongue in cheek
Country snatched, while we sleep
The hate they sowed is what they'll reap

We're throwing bombs
Don't care where they land
I'll leave you left
Right
Left
Right
Right where you stand
We're throwing bombs
Don't care where they land
I'll leave you left
Right
Left
Right
Destroying your land

250 years
Empires cannot last
I hope the end comes quicker than that
250 years
Hoodwinked and lead astray
Slow horrible death at the end of their path
