The Suicide Of Empire

Complacency
Yet wanting it all
Divide the rules
To watch it all fall

Dependency
A rejection of birth
At fault for feeling
Then let it sink in

And then there’s suicide of empire
A suicide, staged with fire

Trajectory
Without a plan
A covert longing
For something that should be a given

Escapism
Appeal of the fruit
But it’s a poisoned apple
Their Utopia never comes true

And then there’s suicide of empire
Empirical. Stage the fire for me.

Self imposed
Paper object
A purpose for anger
And an excuse for it all

Sacrificial lambs
Forsaking all others
A blueprint to the end
There’s crumbs for the foundation

And then there’s suicide of empire
A suicide, staged with fire
There’s suicide of empire
A protecting sea. Staged for me.
