And Kingdoms Fall Lyrics

"I wrote this song about a coup;e of close friends dealing with the harshness and pain of substance abuse. This song remains very dear to me this day"
(Brian Korban)

Each breath a struggle
Your dreams slip away
Blinded, reality
Gets harder and harder to face
Killing themselves
What can explain
A moment of pleasure for a lifetime of pain
Killing themselves
It's such a waste

[Pre-Chorus]:
Dare to realize
It's never too late
You can't brush it off
As just a dream
It's never too late to change

[Chorus]:
...And Kingdoms rise
...And Kingdoms fall
Down will come baby cradle and all

Lured in, prisoners
To its domain, crippled
It watches you bleed
What a waste

[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]

[Bridge]:
Dependency grows
Need more and more
With nothing to show
The endless war

Life slips through your hands
