It's been about a year
We surrendered and were overthrown
We lost the war but I
Don't know how I'm supposed to let this go
We had the streaks of gold
In our kingdom thought we had it all
It's rich how just a little
poison always makes the mighty fall
So this is what you wanted
Done the memories you throw them out to drown in gasoline
Light them up and scorch our history
Yeah this is what you wanted
To see me fighting for the life we had but I can't bring it back
Now I see why empires never last
I knew that it was done
I just wish I could've closed my eyes
Cause even after death
I'm still looking for some peace of mind
I thought I found my queen
Now I'm thinking was it just a lie
Cause that's the thing with love
It just leaves and never tells you why
So this is what you wanted
Done with the memories you throw them out to drown in gasoline
Light em up and scorch our history
Yeah this is what you wanted
To see me fighting for the life we had but I can't bring it back
Now I see why empires never last
Was it make believe
Was this fantasy
Woah get up off the floor
You're not welcome anymore
Oooh was this make believe
Was this fantasy
Woah get up off the floor
I don't want you anymore
This is what you wanted
Done with the memories you throw them out to drown in gasoline
Light em up and scorch our history
Yeah this is what you wanted
To see me fighting for the life we had but I can't bring it back
Now I see why empires never last
We surrendered and were overthrown
We lost the war but I
Don't know how I'm supposed to let this go
We had the streaks of gold
In our kingdom thought we had it all
It's rich how just a little
poison always makes the mighty fall
So this is what you wanted
Done the memories you throw them out to drown in gasoline
Light them up and scorch our history
Yeah this is what you wanted
To see me fighting for the life we had but I can't bring it back
Now I see why empires never last
I knew that it was done
I just wish I could've closed my eyes
Cause even after death
I'm still looking for some peace of mind
I thought I found my queen
Now I'm thinking was it just a lie
Cause that's the thing with love
It just leaves and never tells you why
So this is what you wanted
Done with the memories you throw them out to drown in gasoline
Light em up and scorch our history

To see me fighting for the life we had but I can't bring it back
Now I see why empires never last
