The End of the Empire Lyrics by Helioss

Devenir le soleil

2020

Everything falls!
In the blackest night, in the moonless dark
Everything burns!
In an endless terror without stars
The walls are tainted with blood
The bricks have become red
Rivers of corpses, oceans of guts
A devouring blaze, never replete
This is the end of the empire
On the top of the verdant hill
A great fire roars to the sky
As the old temple collapses
This is the end of the empire
Our glorious gods and fiery priests
Now lies down in misery
Amongst ruins, ashes and dust
«I see the rage of the divine
I hear the scream, the wrath and the flame
I feel the empty eyes of the beast
Staring at me, crawling towards us
Did you not dream of a burning field?
Of scorching winds carrying the smell of death?
Have you not see the worms eating up the flesh
Of our very inner faith?»
Everything falls!
In the blackest night, in the moonless dark
Everything burns!
In an endless terror without stars
Foaming beasts, war machines
One thousand blades through our skin
A putrid army of rotting slaves
Like a putrescent plague of steel
One by one
Brick by brick
One by one
One by one
Brick by brick
One by one
This is the end of the empire
On the top of the verdant hill
A great fire roars to the sky
As the old temple collapses
This is the end of the empire
Our glorious gods and fiery priests
Now lies down in misery
Amongst ruins, ashes and dust
The gods are gone!
The gods are gone!
Deserted skies
The gods are dead!
The gods are dead!
Forsaken men
...And as the mortals wander in the ashes of the broken ones
The silence once again deafen the mourners in the citadel
This is the end of the empire
On the top of the verdant hill
A great fire roars to the sky
As the old temple collapses
This is the end of the empire
Our glorious gods and fiery priests
Now lies down in misery
Amongst ruins, ashes and dust
