Recession repression regression

Shifts of scenery

And warning tremors of landslides



The sun comes down

The mountains move aside

Your kingdom slips out of your hands



chorus: Your tyranny

I was part of

Is now cracking

On every side

And your own life

Is in danger

Your empire

Is on fire



The staggering blows

Are shaking the walls

Nowhere, no place to hide this time



Flare up � Calm down

There is more sand than oil in your engine
