Like a city overthrown We're turning buildings into stones We leave the bodies to the crows On a funeral fire Now we're choking on the fumes Spread the lie and kill the truth They're in the ashes of the proof We watch the flames rise higher Our empire Is on fire Our empire Is on fire Our empire's on fire Our empire's on fire Now we're falling through the ice We made our bed and rolled the dice Well every gamble has a price We watched the cracks grow wider Wave is climbing past your knees It's just the coming of the seas It's getting harder now to breathe We watched the tides rise higher Our empire Is on fire Our empire Is on fire Our empire's on fire I said I know you know we feel it in our bones I said I know you know we feel it in our bones I said I know you know we feel it in our bones I said I know, woah oh oh, woah oh oh I said I know you know we feel it in our bones I said I know you know we feel it in our bones I said I know you know we feel it in our bones I said I know, woah oh oh, woah oh oh Our empire Is on fire Our empire Is on fire Our empire's on fire Our empire's on fire
