Ha**e Froberg & Musical Companion - Fallen Empire lyrics

Your money's now worth nothing It all went up in smoke Businessman in panic Trying to save their souls A young man with his gun Shooting at his friends A schoolyard full of kids Who met an early end My feet are standing on barren ground The earth is finally closing down But I got one thing on my mind What's going on Are we all blind Is this a fallen empire? A kingdom for no man Is this a fallen empire? A castle made of sand A child HIV-positive What has she done to you A landmine almost took a life today A boy on his way to school The arctic ice melts to water Heavy rain is pouring down on you Somewhere in the Middle East, a guy, a hidden bomb A slaughtered market place, a religious cause they say Is this a fallen empire? A kingdom for no man Is this a fallen empire? A castle made of sand In the darkest hour There's always a glimpse of light I can sense there's some love left In the corner of your eye To be honest I thought we have finally come to an end A positive force Giving me back my strength again Today the market's crashed Money we've never seen This morning the banks collapsed The end of the western dream? But you now the times they're changing The judge hasn't count to ten The world that we all live in Will rise and march again Is this a fallen empire? A kingdom for no man Is this a fallen empire? A castle made of sand
