Where's the fire

There is a red pigment in the sky

What burns on the horizon?

Return to charred buildings;

Off white pillars

Now are cracked and black

Haunting memories

Of a wife saying to me

"I hope I die

Before this beauty fades"

Haunting memories

They have new meaning to me

"I hope I die before this beauty fades"

"No this can't be how rome ends!"

And when it does

It will capture all your flaws

In eternity

"Am I that delusional

That you can see it in my eyes?

Are they burning red

Like rome's burning skies?"

"No this cant be how rome ends!"

And when it does

It will capture all your flaws

In eternity

"I must be a God...

I kill...

I destroy...

I steal...

And nothing happens to me...

Nothing happens to me..."

Nothing

"No this can't be how rome ends!"

(no it can't, no it can't)

And when it does

It will capture all your flaws

In eternity

Eternity
