lyrics

From the silence of a summit to the shock of the fall.
We are blind and we are deaf, we do not heed the call.
The arrogance. The selfishness. Oh dear, we do go wrong.
But not for long, no, not for long.

Every longing for more is a demon´s calling.
Every empire on this earth has fallen.
Nothing´s ever enough until we hit rock bottom.
Every empire on this earth has fallen.

There is euphoria, narcotic bliss and ease
Numbing senses to the fact that a thing slips away the, the more you squeeze.
And all this time we´ve been losing touch
With everything before and after us.

I´m bailing out. I´m bailing out.
We are merchants of decay repeating history.
I´m bailing out. I´m bailing out.
We are merchants of decay repeating history.
I´m bailing out before the lights go out.

The second act´s a cul-de-sac.
This ain´t no breeze you´re sensing now.
The second act´s a cul-de-sac.
It is a storm, raging and loud.

And this ship sails fleetingly
But is already so lost at sea.

Well, the constant strife for a picture-perfect life
Darkens the hall, illuminates the, the guiding light.
And all this time we´ve been losing touch
With everyone who doesn´t breathe thin air with us.

I refuse to live life commonplace.
I refuse to drift in selfish ways.
I refuse to disavow the flood.
I refuse to be another drop.
Refuse. Renounce. Live up.
Refuse. Renounce. Live up.
Refuse. Renounce. Live up.
Refuse to be just another drop.

From the silence of a summit to the shock of the fall.
We are blind and we are deaf, we do not heed the call.
The arrogance. The selfishness. Oh dear, we do go wrong.
But not for long, no, not for long.

Every longing for more is a demon´s calling.
Every empire on this earth has fallen.
Nothing´s ever enough until we hit rock bottom.
Every empire on this earth has fallen.
Every longing for more is a demon´s calling.
Every empire on this earth has fallen.
The tables will turn, we can but stall them.
Every empire on this earth has fallen.
