Legion Within - The Empire Is Burning lyrics

Nothing lasts forever, but forever Is what was promised from the start Try to see things my way, there's a highway There's a path within your heart Standing in this darkness, it's so lonely I'm so cold this feels so stark And sometimes when you're near me, I feel nothing And that's tearing me apart The Empire is Burning It's the final days Corporate wars fought by corporate slaves Shameless profiteering Off of human need The only real losers are the human beings Torture's back in fashion It's American chic No one gives a damn about The frail and the meek The Empire is Burning It's the final days We'd turn our eyes to heaven But the sky is corroded Nothing lasts forever, but forever Is what was promised from the start Try to see things my way, there's a highway There's a path within our hearts Don't think – just believe in these lies Don't speak – no one cares what you say Don't hope – it's already too late Don't cry – are those tears in your eyes Don't feel – you're just foolish and weak Don't love – they'll just spit in your face Don't look – you won't like what you see Don't try – you can never succeed The Empire is Burning Nothing lasts forever
