Empire of Dust
An Empire of Dust and Grime
Was built on the backs of broken souls.
In the kingdom of Rust and Slime,
A millennium of neglect take its toll.
Society lost to the sands of time,
Little of which is now left behind.
It was destroyed by waves of crime
Failure defined as a smoldering ruin.
Disintegrated!
Desecrated!
Destroyed without cause!
Incinerated!
Violated!
Damaged beyond repair!
An affair with power
That turned sour
Left behind the Empire of Dust.
Ashes of a race
Burnt and smoldering.
The fires of hell are churning.
All that remains,
Keeps on burning,
As the world just keeps on turning.
Disintegrated!
Desecrated!
Destroyed without cause!
Incinerated!
Violated!
Damaged beyond repair!
An affair with power
That turned sour
Left behind the Empire of Dust
