Susanne Sundfør – Rome lyrics

I don't want to dive, dive into the sea
Where no one will ever find me, find me
Mayday, mayday!
Death needs a surgeon
Undress me and lighten my burden

Oh, I'm still waiting for you
I'm still waiting for you to come back
Oh, I'm still waiting for you
I'm still waiting for you to come back

From Rome, Rome, Rome
From the ashes of Rome
From the ashes of Rome, come back
Bring the children home, you know we are all alone
You know we are all alone in a flooded dome

I don't want to fear, I don't want to fear
I don't wanna know that the end is near
Tell me it's over, tell me it won't linger
Bend me over and separate my fingers

Oh, I'm still waiting for you
I'm still waiting for you to come back
Oh, I'm still waiting for you
I'm still waiting for you to come back

From Rome, Rome, Rome
From the ashes of Rome
From the ashes of Rome, come back
Bring the children home, you know we are all alone
You know we are all alone in a flooded dome

(Winter is coming, winter is coming, winter is coming
We will know that it was friendly fire, friendly fire
Jesus was a liar)

Tell it like it is, tell me slowly
Tell it like it is, like a true story
Tell it like it is, the king is dead, he's gone
Let the gasoline flow, let the locusts follow
Open the gates, evaporate
Black bodies
Black hollows

Don't let anyone enter
