Take a seat and behold
how our future unfolds
Ghosts of prosperity
haunt the walls of dead factories
Try to run for safety
The tidal wave shows no mercy

Staring at the river
I watch the dark stream flow
It carries old time reminents
That died a long time ago
A brick and iron behemoth
has once ruled this place
Its days of might are long gone
Now only crumbling walls remain

Take a seat and behold
how our future unfolds
Ghosts of prosperity
haunt the walls of dead factories

The giant's rotten breath
has spread its deadly germs
The giant's hungry jaws
have crunched so much decaying flesh...
Once a symbol of wealth
that shone like a beacon in the night
This messiah spread its disease
And collapsed in a fit of demonic laughter

Run for your life don't be bold
No need to look for a stronghold
Rabid ghouls now stalk your street
They want to taste your children's meat
Tell me what's left of your trust
As your hopes crumble from rust to dust

(Try to run for safety
The tidal wave shows no mercy
Its deadly shadows are gone
To haunt another place

Empires crumble to dust
We'll be no exception
