Fall Of The Empire Lyrics - Blind Rage - Accept

Can you remember how it used to be 

We were so proud and free, so free 

Strong and mighty powerful and true 

Can you remember 

Now all around us pestilence and greed 

Famine, hate and war 

It surrounds us like a black disease 

Just take a look around us 

In spite of every upright intention 

We live and die by the sword 

It's second nature, and so the question is 

Can we learn or will we burn 

The fall of the empire, what have we done 

The fall of the empire, it's the dawn of the setting sun 

The fall of the empire can this race be won 

It's the fall of the empire or has the end begun 

Will the mountains crumble to the ground 

Will the earth stand still 

Will we rise a mushroom cloud 

Will the mountains crumble 

Can we heed a lesson from the past 

And put aside our hate 

Or will we blow ourselves to kingdom come 

tell me is it too late 

Inside of every aronination 

There is hope that lies within 

It's second nature, and the question is 

Can we learn or will we burn 

The fall of the empire, what have we done 

The fall of the empire, it's the dawn of the setting sun 

The fall of the empire can this race be won 

It's the fall of the empire or has the end begun
