Collapse

An empire falls, faith unwraps, the worm crawls, a fascist relapse...

The world isn’t going back to how things were when you were young. Honestly, what you remember probably wasn’t even real, it was all designed to get you hooked on consuming stuff from the moment you were born. Kept in line and told what to think. Collapse is the inevitable running-down of this system.

Struggling with an empty pit in my stomach, I started pulling together lyrics that helped piece together what I was feeling.

The lyrics

An empire falls, faith unwraps,
The worm crawls, a fascist relapse...

The decades of decay, and years of propaganda,
Your thoughts are on display, an engineered agenda...

The shadows will betray, a twisted cruel surrender,
As hope fades to grey, your dreams will end in splendour...

Nothings left

Systems collapsed
Systems collapsed
Systems collapsed
System has collapsed

A mind led astray, where all you do is remember,
Fading echoes decay, where shadows spark an ember...

Voices drowned, in static hums,
the world cracks, and silence comes...

Nothings left,
but broken backs,
Systems in,
state of collapse (x6)

Nothings left (x6)

Burn the world down, to birth a new god and call it progress.

It was a direct order, smoke filled horizons, the damage done, a wasted life
