"Empire" lyrics - DOKKEN

I stood alone and watched below
As they burned their cities down
The fire and the rage I see
A prophet never found
A thousand years- still nothing learned
The prophets speak their words
Now nothin left
But ashes on the ground
What will you rule in the end
A burnin empire
Do you believe when blood is lost
That it justifies the means?
A child only sees the gun
As the trigger of disease

A thousand years still nothin learned
The prophets speak their words
Now nothing left
But ashes on the ground
What will you rule in the end
A burnin empire
