Necro's Decay Lyrics - On Frail Wings Of Vanity And Wax - Alesana

our empire has fallen 

the columns came crashing down 

faster that children could outrun the shadows 

drunk with hysteria the survivors are running for their lives 

as precious dreams erupt before their very eyes 

 

tonight, it's over...at long last we will fall 

ruins will fight in our stead 

 

my flesh is burning from the embers 

but still the brilliant tale of our utopia survives 

tonight her beautiful exterior may crash and burn to ash 

but the fight for her honor will rage on 

I hope I never see the end 

I hope I never have to live without her comfort 

but for now she dies... oh Rome! so full of majesty, you're gone... 

 

wind chokes on the ashes as acrid smoke strangles the sun 

their jealous arrows ran, hollow drums pound at the gates 

breaking the din of screams 

our feeble offerings to forgotten Gods are left to rot in temples of their lust 

as they lay forth their plans to destroy our pride, our home 

 

tonight, it's over...at long last we will fall 

ruins will fight in our stead 

 

my flesh is burning from the embers 

but still the brilliant tale of our utopia survives 

tonight her beautiful exterior may crash and burn to ash 

but the fight for her honor will rage on 

I hope I never see the end 

I hope I never have to live without her comfort 

but for now she dies... oh Rome! so full of majesty, you're gone... 

...beg the flames for our mercy... 

these aged walls have seen too much 

to forget the past in the face of this final trial 

watch her crumble so true as mayhem cuts her down 

let them have our treasure, her voice lives on 

let them take our city for her splendor lives on 

 

...at long last we will fall...
