The debt toll rises high with the sun
The vulture's belly is filled with blood
The troops are ready: land, sea and air
Geared up for battle, deployments near
It's the end of eternal city
It's the end of the golden road
It's the end of all prosperity
It's the end of an empire: the fall of Rome
Too late for justice, it's dead and gone
Stuck in the gutters where we belong
Echoes of voices strained with the fear
We pray to god, but he ain't here
It's the end of eternal city
It's the end of the golden road
It's the end of all prosperity
It's the end of an empire: the fall of Rome
