Rome

Dressed to kill but still feeling naked

Black tie, white tie, and faking your smile

Walking the streets of the ancient city

It only took an hour to burn it to the ground

Now watch your move before you enter the void

The concrete will swallow your heart and soul

Get lost in the vacuum of space and time

Watch the Roman soldiers in the neon light

And the city becomes your mind

And your mind becomes the city

And the city is burning down

And your mind becomes a ruin

And the Gods left ages ago

They won’t hear you calling

Ruin after ruin, they built the city

A labyrinth for your soul to lose its way

It’s a ghost town and your mind is on fire

You’re ready to fall down just like the Roman Empire

A million souls in a million cars

Stuck in the traffic for a million years

The joke is on you with your head on fire

Lost in the echo of a fallen empire

And the city becomes your mind

And your mind becomes the city

And the city is burning down

And your mind becomes a ruin

And the Gods left ages ago

They won’t hear you calling
