Empires are falling
The war is closing in on us
So why is it so quiet here
Why is it so quiet here

I don’t take it for granted
It all can go away
Will you still be here when I wake up
We know were not immortal
But live like we don’t care
Will we be strong enough

The ground is shaking
The dust is rising
The storm will soon be here
Too late to seek shelter
There is nowhere to hide
Reality is knocking on our door

Empires are falling
The war is closing in on us
So why is it so quiet here
Warnings - we heard them all before
But why is it so quiet here
Why is it so quiet here

How many cries for help do we need
Will we ever make it out alive
The world reminds us over and over
Will anyone ever hear

The ground is shaking
The dust is rising
The storm will soon be here
Too late to seek shelter
There is nowhere to hide
Reality is knocking on our door

Empires are falling
The war is closing in on us
So why is it so quiet here
Warnings - we heard them all before
But why is it so quiet here
Why

Empires are falling
The war is closing in on us
So why is it so quiet here
Warnings - we heard them all before
But why is it so quiet here
Why is it so quiet here
