Roman Empire (Stripped)

[Verse 1]

You didn't question all your motives

When you thought that this was

Highly beneficial for me

You then in turn began to think that

It was cute to rub my face

In all these made up stories

[Chorus]

Roman Empire is what you are

Roman Empire is who you are

You’re an empire

Darkest of empires

The Roman Empire

[Verse 2]

You’re building cities on the backs

Of all the people working hard

To build a home with memories

This moral ground you think you own

Is frankly dangerous when you’re

Ripping kids away from what they need

[Chorus]

Roman Empire is what you are

Roman Empire is who you arе

You’re an empire

Darkеst of empires

The Roman Empire

[Bridge]

You broke me down

And stole my soul

Left me vacant

And all alone

[Outro]

What if God’s not real and

Everything we are

Is just a moment here where

We’re only growing older?

What if God is real and

Everything I’ve done

Pushed me down this path

And it’s only growing colder?
