Nothing lasts forever, but forever
Is what was promised from the start
Try to see things my way, there's a highway
There's a path within your heart
Standing in this darkness, it's so lonely
I'm so cold this feels so stark
And sometimes when you're near me, I feel nothing
And that's tearing me apart
The Empire is Burning
It's the final days
Corporate wars fought by corporate slaves
Shameless profiteering
Off of human need
The only real losers are the human beings
Torture's back in fashion
It's American chic
No one gives a damn about
The frail and the meek
The Empire is Burning
It's the final days
We'd turn our eyes to heaven
But the sky is corroded
Nothing lasts forever, but forever
Is what was promised from the start
Try to see things my way, there's a highway
There's a path within our hearts
Don't think - just believe in these lies
Don't speak - no one cares what you say
Don't hope - it's already too late
Don't cry - are those tears in your eyes
Don't feel - you're just foolish and weak
Don't love - they'll just spit in your face
Don't look - you won't like what you see
Don't try - you can never succeed
