Fallen Empires Lyrics

Lyric discussion by InkFeather 

Cover art for Fallen Empires lyrics by Snow Patrol

You called my name in the dark Called me back to the start The condensation is building tension

A stubborn silence is formed Around our bodies it's warm The cool wet grasses as summer passes

Frightened under attack Fallen flat on my back Arms and legs I’m too scared to beg

You haunt me most when it's light The thought of you don’t sit right I need the darkness a death grip embrace

Raising cities to dust Faces dripping in lust Fallen empires and raging bush fires

All your words confounded Secret lives bound and hid Living backwards in tangled back woods

You ruined everything right So good I can’t see the light From my cave I can see the wave Fallen empires and raging bush fires
