Rome Collapsing Songtext
von Jersey Calling

We came, we saw, we conquered, then we failed
Took the bus to the bar where we got railed
Traded maturity for malted hops and ale
Yeah, we derailed
So, trash your perfect point of view

It′s eight o'clock in a boring town
Keep asking why we′re still around
The answers come and go with endless years
The sidewalk's cracked like our peace of mind
So, tell me when's our time to shine?
Been growing up 21 years

The same angst-ridden story
No, never say I′m sorry
This song goes out to me and you

We came, we saw, we conquered, then we failed
Took the bus to the bar where we got railed
Traded maturity for malted hops and ale
Yeah, we derailed
So, trash your perfect point of view


Remember when?
Remember how?
We weren′t just faces in the crowd
So, here's your business suit and matching tie

The same angst-ridden story
Still never say I′m sorry
This song goes out to me and you

We came, we saw, we conquered, then we failed
Took the bus to the bar where we got railed
Traded maturity for malted hops and ale
Yeah, we derailed
So, trash your perfect point of view

Woo!

We came, we saw, we conquered, then we failed
Took the bus to the bar where we got railed
Traded maturity for malted hops and ale
We came, we saw, we conquered, then we failed
Took the bus to the bar where we got railed
Traded maturity for malted hops and ale
Yeah, we derailed (we derailed!)
So, trash your perfect point of view
Yeah!
