Primordial - Empire Falls Lyrics
A cold wind is blowingThrough the graves it is blowingAnd it bares a poisoned tongueAnd the foul breath of deceitI am my father's sonAnd his deedsCannot be undone... be undoneYou trade in his bloodWriting your historyIn the sacrifices of the deadWhere is the fighting man?Am I he?You would trade every truthFor hollow victories...For hollow victories!Every empire will fallEvery monument crumbleForgotten men who watch, who watch the centuriesWhose silent words rise upRise up in betrayalAnd We will rise up, rise up in betrayalWhere is the fighting man?Am I he?You would trade every truthFor hollow victories...For hollow victories!Every empire fallsAnd the earth to ashes turnThe lands of my birthShall be my tomb!And These are the lands, the lands of my birthSoon to be ruins, the ruins of my pastAnd when the sky should fallThe earth to ashes turnThen you will know, they shall be my tombWhere is the fighting man?I am he!You would trade every truthFor hollow victories...For hollow victories!
