Celldweller - End of an Empire lyrics

At the edge of the hellfire
It's the end of an empire
In the line of the gunfire
It's the end of an empire again
Again again
It's the end of an empire

A start, an end, a rise and fall
No system eternal and no one immortal
Creation, all must end in destruction
We cannot change the fate of civilization

(Start end) We build our symbols of power
(Rise fall) Constructs of a mortal mind
(Lifespan) Conquer in our brightest hour
(Mortal) But then we all must fall in time

Through space and time
We can't escape this paradigm

At the edge of the hellfire
It's the end of an empire
In the line of the gunfire
It's the end of an empire again
Again it's the end of an empire

(Time love) Kingdoms, each of us reigning
(Dreams death) Over the realms of
Our hearts and minds
(Space mind) Conscious that death is awaiting
(Scene tech) But even death will end in time

Through space and time
We can't escape this paradigm

At the edge of the hellfire
It's the end of an empire
In the line of the gunfire
It's the end of an empire again
Again it's the end of an empire

In the death of a desire
It's the end of an empire
At the close of a lifetime
It's the end of an empire

At the edge of the hellfire
It's the end of an empire
In the line of the gunfire
It's the end of an empire again
Again again
Again it's the end of an empire
Again it's the end of an empire

We're falling into the unknown
Another ending that's beginning to unfold
We're falling into the unknown (it's the end)
Another ending that's beginning to unfold
(it's the end of an empire)
We're falling into the unknown (it's the end)
Another ending that's beginning to unfold
(it's the end)
We're falling into the unknown (it's the end)
Another ending that's beginning to unfold
(it's the end of an empire)
(It's the end of an empire)
