Alesana - Necro's Decay lyrics
[Alesana - Necro's Decay lyrics]
Our empire has fallen
The columns came crashing down
Faster that children could outrun the shadows
Drunk with hysteria the survivors are
Running for their lives
As precious dreams erupt before
Their very eyes
Tonight, it's overat long last we will fall
Ruins will fight in our stead
My flesh is burning from the embers
But still the brilliant tale
Of our utopia survives
Tonight her beautiful exterior may crash
And burn to ash
But the fight for her honor will rage on
I hope I never see the end
I hope I never have to
Live without her comfort
But for now she dies oh
Rome! so full of majesty, you're gone
Wind chokes on the ashes as
Acrid smoke strangles the sun
Their jealous arrows ran
Hollow drums pound at the gates
Breaking the din of screams
Our feeble offerings to forgotten
Gods are left
To rot in temples of their lust
As they lay forth their plans
To destroy our pride, our home
Tonight, it's overat long last we will fall
Ruins will fight in our stead
My flesh is burning from the embers
But still the brilliant tale
Of our utopia survives
Tonight her beautiful exterior may crash
And burn to ash
But the fight for her honor will rage on
I hope I never see the end
I hope I never have to
Live without her comfort
But for now she dies oh
Rome! so full of majesty, you're gone
Beg the flames for our mercy
These aged walls have seen too much
To forget the past in the
Face of this final trial
Watch her crumble so true as
Mayhem cuts her down
Let them have our treasure
Her voice lives on
Let them take our city for
Her splendor lives on
At long last we will fall
The columns came crashing down
Faster that children could outrun the shadows
Drunk with hysteria the survivors are
Running for their lives
As precious dreams erupt before
Their very eyes
Tonight, it's overat long last we will fall
Ruins will fight in our stead
My flesh is burning from the embers
But still the brilliant tale
Of our utopia survives
Tonight her beautiful exterior may crash
And burn to ash
But the fight for her honor will rage on
I hope I never see the end
I hope I never have to
Live without her comfort
But for now she dies oh
Rome! so full of majesty, you're gone
Wind chokes on the ashes as
Acrid smoke strangles the sun
Their jealous arrows ran
Hollow drums pound at the gates
Breaking the din of screams
Our feeble offerings to forgotten
Gods are left
To rot in temples of their lust
As they lay forth their plans
To destroy our pride, our home
Tonight, it's overat long last we will fall
Ruins will fight in our stead
My flesh is burning from the embers
But still the brilliant tale
Of our utopia survives
Tonight her beautiful exterior may crash
And burn to ash
But the fight for her honor will rage on
I hope I never see the end
I hope I never have to
Live without her comfort
But for now she dies oh
Rome! so full of majesty, you're gone
Beg the flames for our mercy
These aged walls have seen too much
To forget the past in the
Face of this final trial
Watch her crumble so true as
Mayhem cuts her down
Let them have our treasure
Her voice lives on
Let them take our city for
Her splendor lives on
At long last we will fall
