Robyn Cage - Empires Rise (Radio Edit)

Empires rise...
My fallen king, my everything,
What happened to our dream?
I once believed you'd be with me
At the end of all things
Though our love was still alive
Buried under alibis
When I looked into your life
I saw the warning signs… in your eyes
Empires rise
We built them tall
Higher highs
Higher walls
A desperate quest for happiness
Existing in extremes
To separate ends with separate friends
Enlisting in our dreams
The slow collapse of passing time
Showed the cracks were growing wide
While we grasped for the divine
Despite the warning signs… in our eyes
Empires rise
We built them tall
Higher highs
Higher walls
Our kingdom was a paradise
We seemed to have it all
In the end, it's not our fault
Empires rise
It was a lonely throne, a lonely throne,
A lonely throne that you held
And I'm the one, oh I'm the one,
I'm the one who failed
Empires rise
Empires rise
Our kingdom lies in ruins
But our legacy lives on
In the end, it's not all gone
Empires rise
