End of an Empire (Bullet of Reason Remix) [2nd Place]

At the edge of the hellfire
It's the end of an empire
In the line of the gunfire
It's the end of an empire
Again

A start, an end, a rise and fall
No system eternal and no one immortal
Creation all must end in destruction
We cannot change the fate of civilization

start end rise fall
lifespan mortal

We build our symbols of power
Constructs of a mortal mind
Conquer in our brightest hour
But then we all must fall in time

Through space and time
We can't escape this paradigm

At the edge of the hellfire
It's the end of an empire
In the line of the gunfire
It's the end of an empire
Again

time love dreams death
space mind scene tech

Kingdoms, each of us reigning
Over the realms of our hearts and minds
Conscious that death is awaiting
But even death will end in time

In the death of a desire
It's the end of an empire
At the close of a lifetime
It's the end of an empire

We're falling into the unknown
another ending thats beginning to unfold
