Burning an Empire Songtext
von Seventh Day Slumber

Left with a ghost,
we traded our souls.
Now we′re the ones who run the show.
We wanted you out,
tearing your church to the ground,
anything just to have control.

What will it take
to see the mess we've made

We′re burning an empire.
Can we arise from the ashes again?
We're lost in the fire!
Will we ever recover,
come back from the state we're in?


We are the ones who decide
who lives and who dies.
We let the unborn pay price.
It′s all just murder for hire
and we go on with our own lives.

What will it take
to see the mess

We′re burning an empire.
Can we arise from the ashes again?
What we've lost in the fire,
will we ever recover,
Come back from the state we′re in?

There's evil in your eyes,
Your bloodstained hands don′t lie
You're rotting deep inside
You′re rotting deep inside
