you see me as a widow
in your one blind eye
after all I've tried to be
I'm a zero in the one
that see's my attempts
at toppin down the walls
but you didn't need a hero at all
No
I was playing Nero
The world went on turning
I was fiddling down the sun
with your empire buring
Down to the ground
it made me very happy
to see the sun come up
on the smoldering ruins of rome
the place you used to call
your kingdom and your home
I pullthe bow across the strings
a tear grows in my eye
when I hear the fiddle sing
It falls unto my lashes
and rolls unto the ashes
the fire is dying down
and there is nothing
left of the town
except for me
and you
and this violin
and this violin
this violin
so do you hate me now
or can we call it even
are you going to stay here
or are you leavin
if the ansewer is that you'll stay
then I'm sorry that it had
to go this way
Lets start building from the ashes
have an empire once again
you and me and this
violin
oh
oh
oh oh oh
oh
oh yeah
So do you hate me now
or can we call it even
are you going to stay
or are you leaving
if the ansewer is that you'll
stay then I'm sorry that it
had to go this way
Lets start building from the ashes
have an empire once again
you and me and this
