Lyrics:
You didn’t question all your motives when you thought that this was highly beneficial for me.
You then in turn began to think that it was cute to rub my face in all these made up stories.

Roman Empire is what you are.
Roman Empire is who you are.
You’re an empire.
Darkest of empires.
The Roman Empire.

You’re building cities on the backs of all the people working hard to build a home with memories.
This moral ground you think you own is frankly dangerous when you’re ripping kids away from what they need.

What if God’s not real and everything we are is just a moment here where we’re only growing older?
What if God is real and everything I’ve done pushed me down this path and it’s only growing colder?

[Verse 1]
You didn't question all your motives
When you thought that this was
Highly beneficial for me
You then in turn began to think that
It was cute to rub my face
In all these made up stories

[Chorus]
Roman Empire is what you are
Roman Empire is who you are
You’re an empire
Darkest of empires
The Roman Empire

[Verse 2]
You’re building cities on the backs
Of all the people working hard
To build a home with memories
This moral ground you think you own
Is frankly dangerous when you’re
Ripping kids away from what they need

[Chorus]
Roman Empire is what you are
Roman Empire is who you are
You’re an empire
Darkest of empires
The Roman Empire
Roman Empire is what you are
Roman Empire is who you are
You’re an empire
Darkest of empires
The Roman Empire

[Post-Chorus]
(You're an empire)
(You're an empire)

[Bridge]
What if God’s not real and
Everything we are
Is just a moment here where
We’re only growing older?
What if God is real and
Everything I’ve done
Pushed me down this path
And it’s only growing colder?

[Chorus]
Roman Empire is what you are
Roman Empire is who you are
You’re an empire
Darkest of empires
The Roman Empire
Roman Empire is what you are
Roman Empire is who you are
You’re an empire
Darkest of empires
The Roman Empire

[Post-Chorus]
(You're an empire)
(You're an empire)

[Outro]
What if God’s not real and
Everything we are
Is just a moment here where
We’re only growing older?
What if God is real and
Everything I’ve done
Pushed me down this path
And it’s only growing colder?

Surely the Romans had no idea that 1, 600 years after their fall there would still be songs named after them

[lolod]

Hasn’t even dropped yet, but I can tell this is going to be amazing.

[pierajimenez]

There seems to be a connection between the music videos... Guess who's going to spend all day analyzing them and trying to sort the story ;)
As always, THIS IS ART, thanks for this incredible album <3

[milacipolloni]

As a person from Rome, this is how I go to school everyday :)

[marcogzz]

“You’re an empire
Darker that vampires
The Roman Empire”

[lwxinmill]

I'm in love with this song.. It's PERFECT

[mmmmpaprika]

This sounds like "Everybody Gets High" but I literally love this song so much

[thestig]

Best of the 4 new songs change my mind

[adriartmat]

MISSIO, no se cuando me lo recomendo youtube...pero agradezco ese día, veo que hay diferentes comentarios en español, y me alegra que hayan personas que le gusta esta música a pesar de que no puedan entender muy bien la letra (al menos yo que no se muy bien ingles xd).

[hoangcoconut]

David killed it in the Roman armor. But Matthew? what a clonetroper doing here? 🤣

[love-will-feel-like-a-favor]

"What if God's not real and everything we are is just a moment here where we're only growing older
What if God is real and everything I've done pushed me down this path and its only growing colder."

What if he is right...

[dayangmarikit]

This song would have went well with the Hunger Games.

[LightofApollo]

And one thing's for certain. All great empires have an expiry date...

[love-will-feel-like-a-favor]

Producer: so let's make it creepy
David (drummer): Let's use fake skeletons and like-
Matthew (singer): **hysterically laughing** you wanted ?fake? skeletons. **laughing some more and falls out of chair**

[lcyanide]

ME in my history class writing a essay about how rome fell.
Me: Wow, POG

[dibmembrane]

This is an absolute masterpiece. Change my mind.

[xandi]

"Roman empire is what you are" Not sure if you're calling me all powerful or dead....

[garret]

Oh yes yes yes this is gonna be awesome.

[TyDye_NP]

I appreciate how they incorporate bits from the other music videos
