[Verse 1] You sound like a child, imbecile, Who am I? Just a disciple. You seem lost, maybe I'll show you the true villains, Those heroes and their idiotic plans, in for a killing? [Pre-Chorus] They wear their halos like a crown, While they drag the whole world down. I watched the flames light up the sky, Now tell me who’s the villain and why? [Chorus] Burn Rome down, let the embers glow, We were built on ash, now watch it grow. If the world won’t listen, let it learn the cost, From the ruins of the lies that we all lost. [Verse 2] You preach salvation with a sharpened tongue, A holy song for the broken and young. But every prayer that you send to the air Comes back empty, cold, and bare. [Pre-Chorus] They sold us hope in a gilded frame, Then fed the fire and called it change. I saw the truth behind their lies, Now the empire falls and no one cries. [Chorus] Burn Rome down, let the embers glow, We were built on ash, now watch it grow. If the world won’t listen, let it learn the cost, From the ruins of the lies that we all lost. [Bridge] So let it crack, let it break apart, Every lie carved deep in the heart. When the towers fall and the bells all ring, We'll rise from the smoke and sing. [Final Chorus] Burn Rome down, let the embers glow, We were built on ash, now watch it grow. If the world won't listen, let it learn the cost, From the ruins of the lies that we all lost. Burn Rome down, let the ashes fly, From the old world’s end comes a battle cry. No more saints, no more thrones to defend, Only the fire, till the bitter end.
