MESC 2013:
Richard Edwards - "Fall Like Rome"

Fall Like Rome

I'm a fountain missing water
Like a city without pillars
A white rose without its petals
Only thorns

My empire slowly melting
My whole world almost colliding
My heart naked on the inside
Feeling worn

I rise and fall, falling like Rome
Tumbling like a rolling stone
Turning into ashes, burnt and gone
I rise and fall, falling like Rome
Fighting through a battle lost
Holding back the tears at all cost
I fall like Rome
(I fall like Rome)

I'm a ruler with no kingdom
With no power or emotions
Ruling over empty heartbeats
Yours and mine

Where the fire keeps on falling
Where my hope is quickly sinking
And the power of true love
Ain't worth a dime

I rise and fall, falling like Rome
Fighting through a battle lost
Holding back the tears at all cost
I fall like Rome

I don't wanna fall, don't wanna fall
Don't wanna fall from where I stand
I don't wanna fall, don't wanna fall
Don't wanna fall… I don't wanna fall

I rise and fall, falling like Rome
Tumbling like a rolling stone
Turning into ashes, burnt and gone
I rise and fall…
Fighting through a battle lost
Holding back the tears at all coѕt
I fall like Rome
I fаll like Rome
