Waking Eyes (The)

All Empires Fall
I know a man, he's a bit of a bratLies to his friends, says he knows where it's atYeah I know a man, think he's running the worldLet's take him down, pull him down, we don't want him around here no moreAll on his own but he don't give a damnThree years later, still playing the lambYeah it's not the problem, it's the cause that's the problemJust not enough to go aroundNo, there's never enough of itAll empires fallAll empires fallI think it's time that we learn ChineseSomething's coming from the East, can't you feel the breeze?People talking 'bout the end of historyDon't they see it's just a cycle, just a cycle spinning around us againRome Was strong 'til the bitter endPlagued by attacks that she couldn't defendShe was stretched too thin like the skin on a drumGetting pounded and a-pounded and a-pounded by the weight of the way it isWhy don't we take time to relax?Retreat to the factsIt's anything and everything from dust to dustA set of eyes, hands and earsA collection of fearsIs this as good as it getsReigning on a stone after two million years?
