about

"Emperor" is a powerful metalcore track from Lost in Ruin that packs a punch with its aggressive breakdowns. The lyrics convey a message about the negative impact of human actions on the earth, with an urgent call for change. With a catchy chorus and energetic sound, the song is sure to leave listeners pumped up and ready for action. It's the first single of the upcoming EP "Downfall" of the newly formed band Lost In Ruin, hailing from Vienna, Austria.

lyrics

Can’t you see the fire spread?
We are the reason that this whole place is burning
I know it's easier to hold your breath
But it is time to stop the wheel from turning

Can’t you see what we’ve created?
We treated our home relentlessly
The diamonds on your crown are stained with blood
Death washed ashore with the flood


We turned the oceans red
//We turned the oceans red//
Cleared the woodlands
Watched the cancer spread
//Watched the cancer spread//
To dig our own grave
To dig our own grave


Euphoria
We’re spreading our own plague
We plant the seeds
Death is in our own hands

Euphoria
We’re spreading our own plague
We plant the seeds
Soon we will reach the end

Not long, until we vanish
We have to pay the price
We are the tarnished

We all will suffer! We will go down!
We all will suffer! We will slowly drown!

Emperor
Emperor
Emperor
Emperor
Emperor
Emperor
Emperor
Emperor

Was it worth all the blood spilled in vain
We dried the soil now we dance for rain
Brought the drought to
This place
Was never meant to be our own
We thought we conquered
Nature
Takes back her home

//Takes back her home//

Welcome to the purgatory
You don’t have to die for your own hell
Feeding off the ordinary
Blessing our world with plastic oceans

Wreaking havoc along all of the coasts
I’ve had enough of watching people ripping all of the souls
Appart
By the distance
But I never missed it
I miss the time that I had without thinking about all this mischief

I am the Emperor
Euphoria

Euphoria
We’re spreading our own plague
We plant the seeds
Death is in our own hands

Euphoria
We’re spreading our own plague
We plant the seeds
Soon we will reach the end

I am the bearer of light
I keep the demons alive
This is the end
The end of the line
Hold onto me, we are all gonna die
