Sleeping With Sirens - Empire To Ashes Lyrics
[Verse 1]The lion and the wolfOld gods and the newBattle of the bastardsTrying to break throughA back and forth pendulumWe can't seem to stopTicking like a metronomeCan't kill the clockSomedays I feel like we're just symptoms of our systemBlack hole no hopePsycho syndrome[Chorus]Hey!Feels like we're caged animalsLooking for the antidoteTo break the chains they put us inYeah you can call it cynicalMaybe I'm just miserableBut there's no way I'm giving inTo their lies I'm gonna fightAnd put it all on the line tonightSo light the gas with some matchesLet's burn the old empire into ashes[Post-Chorus]Woah, woahLet's burn it all into ashes[Verse 2]The young man dreams while he sleeps in his bedDeath keeps an eye while he's waiting for the deadIf life is a needle then my soul is the threadMy mouth is the poison, my tongue is the leadSomedays I feel like I'm just stuck in my own skinTry to break free but I can't escape me[Chorus]Hey!Feels like we're caged animalsLooking for the antidoteTo break the chains they put us inYeah you can call it cynicalMaybe I'm just miserableBut there's no way I'm giving inTo their lies I'm gonna fightAnd put it all on the line tonightSo light the gas with some matchesLet's burn the old empire into ashes[Post-Chorus]Woah, woahLet's burn it all into ashes[Bridge]Let's turn it all into ashesSometimes I feel like we're just symptoms of our systemBlack hole no hopePsycho syndromePsycho syndrome[Chorus]Hey!Feels like we're caged animalsLooking for the antidoteTo break the chains they put us inYeah you can call it cynicalMaybe I'm just miserableBut there's no way I'm giving inHey!Feels like we're caged animalsLooking for the antidoteTo break the chains they put us inYeah you can call it cynicalMaybe I'm just miserableBut there's no way I'm giving in[Post-Chorus]Woah, woahThere's no way I'm giving inWoah, woahLet's burn it all into ashes
