And When the Fall of Rome

from The Supreme Macaroni Co Ltd by Aaron Bowen

/

about

A political love story.......

lyrics

A servant’s role I have endured
And I’ve endured for so so very long
I spent my days to polish your crown
The only role I thought that I deserved
Pay no attention to the jester
He’s told his story time and time again
To reassure him no ones watching
You’re all alone and no ones listening

Chorus

Oh and when the fall of Rome
The streets will fill with lions

Now her majesty sends her armies
And her court is filled with many spies
Mirror mirror on the wall
For too long you told your ugly lies
You never let me see the flowers
And never let me hear the sirens song
You kept me locked up in your tower
When they were singing to me all along

Chorus

Oh and when the fall of Rome
The streets will fill with lions

Now that your court is gone
Will you ever know my love again

Bridge

Can you feel it coming on
How will you hold on to your heart
Now that your court is gone
And all the leaves have fallen
How will you make it through this driving rain

Chorus

Oh and when the fall of Rome
The streets will fill with lions

Now that your court is gone
Will you ever know my love again
