Where's the fire

The Paramedic

There is a red pigment in the sky 
What burns on the horizon? 
Return to charred buildings; 
Off white pillars 
Now are cracked and black 

Haunting memories 
Of a wife saying to me 
"I hope I die 
Before this beauty fades" 
Haunting memories 
They have new meaning to me 
"I hope I die before this beauty fades" 

"No this can't be how rome ends!" 
And when it does 
It will capture all your flaws 
In eternity 

"Am I that delusional 
That you can see it in my eyes? 
Are they burning red 
Like rome's burning skies?" 

"No this cant be how rome ends!" 
And when it does 
It will capture all your flaws 
In eternity 

"I must be a God... 
I kill... 
I destroy... 
I steal... 
And nothing happens to me... 
Nothing happens to me..." 

Nothing 

"No this can't be how rome ends!" 
(no it can't, no it can't) 
And when it does 
It will capture all your flaws 
In eternity 
Eternity
