Rome's on Fire
With the empire at your feet
Basking in your tyranny
Commanding over
All you've come to rule
While you sit upon the throne
Heeding counsel of your own
No chants of Hail Caesar
(No chants of Hail Caesar)
When havoc is your cry
Let loose the dogs of war
Fire, Rome's on fire
In a sea of flames you stand amazed
Fire, Rome's on fire
The City's burning down
While Nero played
(Down while Nero played)
The embers line the streets
Air runs thick with tragedy
A devastation so merciless and cruel
And the skies are black with smoke
Yet you don't seem to choke
Awake the redeemer
(Awake the, awake the redeemer)
Your chance to magnify
What once went before
Fire, Rome's on fire
In a sea of flames you stand amazed
Fire, Rome's on fire
The City's burning down
While Nero played
Hail Caesar
Great deceiver
Soul redeemer
Who's gonna follow you now?
Hail Caesar
Hail Caesar
Great deceiver
Hail
Soul redeemer
Hail Ceasar
Fire, Rome's on fire
In a sea of flames you stand amazed
Fire, Rome's on fire
The City's burning down
While Nero played
Fire, Rome's on fire
In a sea of flames you stand amazed
(You stand amazed)
Fire, Rome's on fire
The City's burning down
While Nero played
Basking in your tyranny
Commanding over
All you've come to rule
While you sit upon the throne
Heeding counsel of your own
No chants of Hail Caesar
(No chants of Hail Caesar)
When havoc is your cry
Let loose the dogs of war
Fire, Rome's on fire
In a sea of flames you stand amazed
Fire, Rome's on fire
The City's burning down
While Nero played
(Down while Nero played)
The embers line the streets
Air runs thick with tragedy
A devastation so merciless and cruel
And the skies are black with smoke
Yet you don't seem to choke
Awake the redeemer
(Awake the, awake the redeemer)
Your chance to magnify
What once went before
Fire, Rome's on fire
In a sea of flames you stand amazed
Fire, Rome's on fire
The City's burning down
While Nero played
Hail Caesar
Great deceiver
Soul redeemer
Who's gonna follow you now?
Hail Caesar
Hail Caesar
Great deceiver
Hail
Soul redeemer
Hail Ceasar
Fire, Rome's on fire
In a sea of flames you stand amazed
Fire, Rome's on fire
The City's burning down
While Nero played
Fire, Rome's on fire
In a sea of flames you stand amazed
(You stand amazed)
Fire, Rome's on fire
The City's burning down
While Nero played
