Can you remember how it used to be?
We were so proud, so free
Strong and mighty powerful and true
Can you remember?
Now all around us, pestilence and greed
Famine, hate and war
It surrounds us like a black disease
Just take a look around us
In spite of every upright intention
We live and die by the sword
It's second nature, and so the question
Is can we learn or will we burn?
(It's fall of the empire)
What have we done?
(The fall of the empire)
It's the dawn of the setting sun
(It's the fall of the empire)
Can this race be won?
(The fall of the empire)
Or has the end begun?
Will the mountains crumble to the ground?
Will the earth stand still?
Will we rise into a mushroom cloud?
Will the mountains crumble?
Can we heed a lesson from the past
And put aside our hate?
Or will we blow ourselves to kingdom come?
Tell me isn't too late
In spite of every abomination
There is a hope that lies within
It's second nature and so the question is
Can we learn or will we burn?
(It's fall of the empire)
What have we done?
(The fall of the empire)
It's the dawn of the setting sun
(It's the fall of the empire)
Can this race be won?
(The fall of the empire)
Has the end begun?
Will we soon be just a memory?
Or will there be no memories at all?
(It's fall of the empire)
Ooh what have we done?
(The fall of the empire)
It's the dawn of the setting sun
(It's the fall of the empire)
Can this race be won?
(The fall of the empire)
The end has now begun
