The Empress Songtext
von Rise to Fall

Another failed attempt of recovering the paradise we used to live in
Ingenuous, I was so naive thinking I
Could save it all, thinking I could save you

It is shaking my bones, feel the fear deep inside
Because losing you means losing it all
Are you aware of your role? I can′t let you disappear
Because nothing can thrive without you

I wish I could sharpen my wits
To be able to immortalize the beauty
To make it rustproof


All the hidden dirt,
All the ingratitude, have made you wither irreversibly
The weakness within your roots
Makes mankind collapse, makes it crumble

It is shaking my bones, feel the fear deep inside
Because losing you means losing it all
Are you aware of your role? I can't let you disappear
Because nothing can thrive without you

You are the seed that can reafforest from the ashes
You are the only one who can restore this
The empress of the world

I wish I could sharpen my wits
To be able to immortalize the beauty
To make it rustproof
