End of an Empire - Turisas[00:00:00]

The time is here[00:00:01]

Time to be brave while others fear[00:00:04]

Fear the stars the moon and the holy ghost[00:00:08]

It's what lurks in the dark that scares us the most[00:00:14]

You're damned if you do you're damned if you don't[00:00:20]

What tomorrow brings is still the unknown[00:00:26]

But can you condone how to atone[00:00:32]

I'm so alone[00:00:36]

How can I know I won't bemoan[00:00:39]

Every tale needs its star and knave[00:00:45]

Which part I play is yet to be unveiled[00:00:51]

History just what's agreed[00:00:58]

Yet it will judge both you and me[00:01:03]

Shields and swords will win you wars[00:01:09]

But in the end the battle's for our hearts[00:01:15]

Fought by bards[00:01:21]

We know the walls will fall [00:01:37]

You look back in time[00:01:51]

No one heard the bells chime[00:01:53]

You wonder how[00:01:56]

How could they this allow [00:02:00]

Exactly the same[00:02:03]

Are the questions aimed your way[00:02:06]

When looking back on today[00:02:09]

The time is here[00:02:15]

Time to be brave let others fear[00:02:18]

We know the walls will fall[00:02:21]

But out of the ashes a new day will dawn[00:02:28]

We've enslaved the world[00:02:34]

We have slaughtered we've burned[00:02:37]

All in the name of our faith[00:02:41]

Only a fool would expect[00:02:46]

Others to settle for anything less[00:02:49]

The tide is about to turn[00:02:52]

The sea has pulled away[00:03:21]

Like small children we play[00:03:23]

What is this [00:03:27]

Come take a look at all these fish [00:03:29]

As long as you spend[00:03:33]

There is more for you to lend[00:03:35]

Someone always saves us in the end[00:03:38]

The time is here[00:03:45]

Time to be brave let others fear[00:03:47]

We know the walls will fall[00:03:51]

But out of the ashes a new day will dawn[00:03:58]

We've enslaved the world[00:04:04]

We have slaughtered we've burned[00:04:07]

All while knowing what is best[00:04:11]

Might take a year or ten[00:04:16]

Generations of men[00:04:19]

We've passed the point of no return[00:04:22]

Fifty-three days in 53[00:04:34]

Fifty-three steps for you to acknowledge your defeat[00:04:37]

The last in line ultimus romanorum[00:04:43]

Evolution through revolution[00:04:49]

A frozen river enough to tip an empire[00:04:52]

Stalingrad Waterloo Bastille Poltava Stamford Bridge[00:04:58]

At Manzikert it would all end[00:05:06]

Tough are times ahead[00:05:14]

With care you tread[00:05:16]

Before you know[00:05:19]

Out we need to bow[00:05:23]

Enjoy it while it lasts[00:05:26]

Soon forgotten in the past[00:05:28]

Our time here ended so fast[00:05:31]

Open your eyes[00:05:37]

Yourself apprise[00:05:40]

All empires find their demise[00:05:43]

The taller they are the harder they fall[00:05:48]

The snowball[00:05:54]

Is on the roll[00:05:57]

Open your eyes[00:06:01]

Yourself apprise[00:06:04]

New powers are on the rise[00:06:07]

So strong is our faith that the world stays as is[00:06:12]

Until it hits like shattering glass to bits[00:06:18]

How did this happen how could this happen[00:06:26]

How could the empire fall[00:06:32]
