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 up the symbols of power

Rise, fall

Constructs of a mortal mind

Life span

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 of

Kingdoms, each of us reigning

Dreams, death

Over the realms of our hearts and minds

Takes mine

Conscious that death is awaiting

Scene end

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
