The Black Angels - Empires Falling

You can be the one who saves yourself
Or you can watch it all go to hell

Make believe you're innocent
Hide in bunkers twice as thick
Blinded by the sun above
End the hate and start this love

Empires falling
It's history on repeat
Our nation's pleading
From street to bloody street

Have you no more confidence?
Your soldiers are your main defense
If you think you're mystical
Then save this bleeding animal

Empires falling
It's history on repeat
Our nation's pleading
From street to bloody street
Empires falling
It's history on repeat
Our nation's pleading
From street to bloody street

And every time I close my eyes
They will take our youth again kid
So never ever look away
When you see the red

Every time you sleep, I want to end you
Every time you wake, I smile at you

And every time I close my eyes
They will take our youth again kid
So never ever look away
When you see the red

You can be the one who saves yourself
Or you can watch it all go to hell
You can be the one who saves yourself
Or you can watch it all go to hell
