The Fall of the Empire
Echoes of a Crumbling Realm: Peter Arreph's Poetic Odyssey
Lyrics
At the star of all the ages people learnt to cry
At the beginning of all epochs, people learned to express their sorrow.
Is the story of the honey that transforms the cake?
Is the narrative about the sweetness that transforms a situation?
All the raining of his hating is the seed of life
All the negativity he spreads is the foundation of life.
Speak louder, she doesn’t want to up her mom
Speak louder; she refuses to elevate her mother.
Show me dusks
Show me instances of twilight.
The sky fall
The sky is collapsing.
Heaven cries
Heaven is shedding tears.
Gods die
Deities are perishing.
Show me dusks
Show me instances of twilight.
The sky fall
The sky is collapsing.
Heaven cries
Heaven is shedding tears.
Gods die
Deities are perishing.
The hopes of survivors are the lies of all the dumbs
The aspirations of survivors are the falsehoods of the ignorant.
And the hate of all the stupids colours the world black
The hatred of the foolish taints the world black.
So the furniture for the palace seems to be white
So, the furnishings for the palace appear to be white.
All the lucky that makes happy the most poor
All the fortunate events that bring joy to the poorest individuals.
Show me dusks
Show me instances of twilight.
The sky fall
The sky is collapsing.
Heaven cries
Heaven is shedding tears.
Gods die
Deities are perishing.
Show me dusks
Show me instances of twilight.
The sky fall
The sky is collapsing.
Heaven cries
Heaven is shedding tears.
Gods die
Deities are perishing.
To your mother
To your mother.
To your father
To your father.
From the stars
From the stars.
To the day that I really wanted
To the day that I truly desired.
To your mother
To your mother.
To your father
To your father.
From the stars
From the stars.
To the day that I want to die
To the day that I want to die.
Show me dusks
Show me instances of twilight.
The sky fall
The sky is collapsing.
Heaven cries
Heaven is shedding tears.
Gods die
Deities are perishing.
Show me dusks
Show me instances of twilight.
The sky fall
The sky is collapsing.
Heaven cries
Heaven is shedding tears.
Gods die
Deities are perishing.
The fall of the empire
The decline of the empire.
The fall of the empire
-The fall of you and I
The decline of you and I.
