Empires

[Verse 1] Ashes to ashes, dust into dust I'll follow you through black Try to forgive that I'm not awake I'm dreaming this dream could last [Pre-Chorus] No looking down There's fool's gold in our eyes [Chorus] Burning an empire Happens so easy Playing with fire Maybe it's you and me Burning an empire Is it our fault? We rise and fall [Verse 2] Like moths to a flame Like bird to a pane of glass Hoping for change but we do the same We're gasoline and a match [Pre-Chorus] No looking down There's fool's gold in our eyes [Chorus] Burning an empire Happens so easy Playing with fire Maybe it's you and me Burning an empire Is it our fault? We rise and fall [Bridge] We just want it all Used to be a tower so tall Now we only are crumbling walls We rise and fall Moth to the flame, as we do the same Like a bird to a pane of glass [Outro] Down to the wire Empires fall
