lyrics

Graveyard of empires / Such a great game / I call, you’re stone / One day you’ll look and find I’m gone/ I could have tasted death for a taste of your tongue / Watching you eat ice cream when we were young / Embrace me in a suicide vest / But don’t say I won’t give you a kiss. / Graveyard of empires / Such a great game / Graveyard of empires / Such a great game / Daughter, in America the river isn’t wet / Young girls learn to fill their jugs on the internet / The old goat seized a kiss from my pout / Like tearing a piece of fat from a starving dog’s snout / I dream I am the president / When I awake, I am the beggar of the world /
Graveyard of empires
Such a great game
