Left with a ghost
We traded our souls
Now we're the ones who run the show
We wanted you out
Ripping your church to the ground
Anything just to have control

What will it take
To see the mess you've made

We're burning an empire
Can we arise from the ashes again
What we've lost in the fire
Can we ever recover
Come back from the state we're in

We are the ones who decide
Who lives and who dies
We let the unborn pay the price
It's all just murder for hire
So you can fill your desire
And we go on with our own lives

What will it take
To see the mess you've made

We're burning an empire
Can we arise from the ashes again
What we've lost in the fire
Can we ever recover
Look at the state we're in

There's evil in your eyes
Your bloodstained hands don't lie
You're rotting deep inside
Rotting deep inside

We're burning an empire
Can we arise from the ashes again
What we've lost in the fire
Can we ever recover
Come back from the state we're in
