Lyrics

Drop

Rulers falling

Down

Rulers falling

Down

Verse 1

Gold

Heavier than lead

Heavy on the head

Crown of feathers floating in the heat

Sunburnt stone

I see the people gathering

They scream

Tenochtitlan is shaking underneath

The black smoke rising

Rising

Rising

Staring at the stranger with the metal skin

He walks like a god but smells like the end

Chorus

Welcome to the fire

Welcome to the fire

Everything is changing

I can feel the empire breaking

Everything is changing

I can feel the empire breaking

Tenochtitlan

Tenochtitlan

Going down in flames

Going down in flames

Verse 2

Dust

Choking out the sky

Broken wings fly

Shattered obsidian shards on the ground

Blood on the altar

Blood on the water

Blood on the stairs

I held the sun in my open palms

Now I watch the garden turn to salt

Nobody wins

Nobody

Nobody

Chorus

Welcome to the fire

Welcome to the fire

Everything is changing

I can feel the empire breaking

Everything is changing

I can feel the empire breaking

Tenochtitlan

Tenochtitlan

Going down in flames

Going down in flames

Bridge

Look at the throne

Look at the throne

Empty

Cold

Sold for a mirror

Sold for a lie

I saw the omens in the midnight sky

I saw the omens in the midnight sky

Drop

Rulers falling

Down

Rulers falling

Down

Empire breaking

Tenochtitlan

Tenochtitlan

Chorus

Welcome to the fire

Welcome to the fire

Everything is changing

I can feel the empire breaking

Everything is changing

I can feel the empire breaking

Tenochtitlan

Tenochtitlan

Going down in flames

Going down in flames

Outro

Just salt

Just stone

Left alone

Down

Down

Gone
