I see your Kingdom falling down around me,
Sparse and Crumbling on your blistered feet,
You can barely wander so tired from defeat,
It's nearly over, You are nearly done,
All the world so well known is completely gone.
You will fall, You will fall, You will fall, You will fall
The atmosphere is filled with a glass,
Destruction to you from your aching past,
Your eyes can barely open waiting desperately,
It's nearly over, You are nearly done,
All the world so well known is completely gone.
You will fall, You will fall, You will fall, You will fall
You need this thunder, It will make you fight,
You need this anger burning up inside,
Take all of the glory that presents itself,
Hold back the riches and go spend the wealth.
You, You, You, You will not fall.
