lyrics
A reflection in history
Is a glimpse of the future
What more can we expect
But to follow in their footsteps
Record this moment
Coming back around again
Our fate in parallel
With those of the ancients
Constantly evolving
Is the mirror of our time
To repeat the past
In the time of the present
Chorus
The fallen empire is dead
Like a statue fallen down
Fires were burned beneath our heads
Another nation burned to the ground
The past follows us now
As we are the followers of our past
A top your steeple
Mimic the mistakes as trend
Tread these waters lightly
They are for all to share
Each new wrath
Stronger than the last
More moral than them all
Taking the forsaken path
That wraps us back to start again
Chorus
The fallen empire is dead
Like a statue fallen down
Fires were burned beneath our heads
Another nation burned to the ground
Fallen
Like a statue crumbling down
Empires
Another nation burned to the ground
The fall of an empire is upon us again
These reigns of power are bestowed
To our successor
Another nation burned to the ground
Is a glimpse of the future
What more can we expect
But to follow in their footsteps
Record this moment
Coming back around again
Our fate in parallel
With those of the ancients
Constantly evolving
Is the mirror of our time
To repeat the past
In the time of the present
Chorus
The fallen empire is dead
Like a statue fallen down
Fires were burned beneath our heads
Another nation burned to the ground
The past follows us now
As we are the followers of our past
A top your steeple
Mimic the mistakes as trend
Tread these waters lightly
They are for all to share
Each new wrath
Stronger than the last
More moral than them all
Taking the forsaken path
That wraps us back to start again
Chorus
The fallen empire is dead
Like a statue fallen down
Fires were burned beneath our heads
Another nation burned to the ground
Fallen
Like a statue crumbling down
Empires
Another nation burned to the ground
The fall of an empire is upon us again
These reigns of power are bestowed
To our successor
Another nation burned to the ground

Interdimensional Invocations

i checked out bands coming to my town, and xoth were on the list. at first i thought they were cheesy since i only liked metal to be deep, dark, and atmospheric . i did enjoy the technical complexity, so i gave them another chance. i equated shredding with jockishness (ugh), but i now see it as a creative choice. i just had to approach it on my own terms, and xoth was the perfect gateway for this. they really opened up a new world for me.
