Standing On The Ruin Of A Beautiful Empire lyrics

This is a code embedded in prose Shadow and rhyme the heart will be beat in time Hidden in words the meaning obscured Scream for your life they wont take me in line We will rise up, rise up eyes on the horizon This is the road the path that I chose In subliminal verse a manifesto We will rise up rise up eyes on the horizon I'm never gonna fall asleep I'm never gonna waste a dream again I'm never gonna be born I'm never gonna grow up again I'm never gonna fall in love I'm never gonna fall alone This is the life for me Standing on the ruin of a beautiful empire Staring through the eyes of a Bernini sculpture This is the time for me Melancholy vision my own musical fracture Listen to the light and melodically capture This is the life for me Fall into the pallet of a secret lost fresco Hide behind the crochet on the manuscript paper
