"Sacrificial Kingdoms" lyrics
"Sacrificial Kingdoms"
It does not take much to destroy a man
Give him rope and he will hang
Same can be said for a dynasty
So fat with itself, can no longer feed
Rome will burn when it's time has come
Ottoman tribes fade away
The social cults empower puppet men
Leaving me to pull the strings
Kingdoms fall to the ground
Crushed by their own greed
An unquenching need to (destroy)
Empires fall by my design
Lust for power speeds
Time people need to destroy
Your future's clear if you can look back
Every culture's earned their fate
Your gluttony as my tool of choice
You've proved you're worthless every day
Kingdoms fall to the ground
Crushed by their own greed
An unquenching need to (destroy)
Empires fall by my design
Lust for power speeds
Time people need to destroy
Kingdoms fall to the ground
Crushed by their own greed
An unquenching need to (destroy)
Empires fall by my design
Lust for power speeds
Time people need to (destroy)
Kingdoms fall to the ground
Crushed by their own greed
An unquenching need to (destroy)
Empires fall by my design
Lust for power speeds
Time people need to (destroy)
Kingdoms fall to the ground
(I'm every side!)
Crushed by their own greed
An unquenching need to destroy
(To destroy!)
Empires fall by my design
(Empires fall by my design!)
Lust for power speeds
Time people need to destroy
(To destroy yourselves!)

Tied up with tight laces
