lyrics

Sleeping in your ancient ruin
The filth would show If there wasn’t so much gold
Built from the sweat and blood of children
Eventually collapsing in upon itself

Your world view is as corrupt as it is wrong
Taking away smiling faces, replacing them with bleeding fingers

But you still see nothing wrong

I will set your empire alight
No more suffering because of your greed

You will know what it means to have nothing

Rotting in your ancient ruin
The filth is so black it has tarnished away the gold
Built from the sweat and blood of children
The walls only just standing

Pricelessness and worthlessness
Amounting to nothingness

Empty stomach, poisoned water
Rotting mattress, filthy plates
These are the homes of the children you enslave

Bleeding freely upon the earth
A single child whimpers, alone
You forced this fate on so many
Now you lie, hated on your throne

Greed has burned a hole in you
A hole that no possession can fill
Now you live in a castle of misery
Fighting what you cannot kill
