Empires Fade - Omnislash

Baby Empires crumble all the time Pay it no mind You just happened to witness mine Don't let all the light fall from your eyes Come, come Empires crumble all the time How can a dismally typical Tuesday Delivering blues with lead in its canopy Scruff and pin me and let's make a man of me Turn up the pounding of the hearts all around And I'm bound to get busy with checking on the living And I'll wring out their hands and my eyes with the sobbing But how can a bland unremarkable typical Tuesday be Day of the Dead?
