Select language to translate this lyric
We've traded their bones for mortar and stone
The state of their hearts for state of the art technology
And with the simplest demands took fingers from hands
And babies from wombs, daring their guns to strike us to the ground
But it's not hard to see that this is necessity
How we kill the free and cause innocents to bleed
Witness now our transforming
Gods we become in the victories won
We'll spread our wings and we'll fly to the sun
Such a long way gone
Beware the juniper
We're carving our names in spirits at play
The dance of the dead marches now so perfectly in time
(I am vampire)
We've traded peace in our souls for pieces of gold
And glimmers of hope to cut straight through the throat of honesty
(I am empire)
