about

"The Emperor Rx" is influenced by the tarot card The Emperor when it is reversed (Rx) in a reading. It signifies abuse of power, totalitarian states, corruption, loss of control, weakness, instability and megalomaniac tendencies.

lyrics

Your tower is on fire.
We watch your walls come tumbling down.
It all seems so dire.
Still we watch it all come tumbling down.

Domination.
Subjugation.
Abuse of power.

Oh father, what have you done?
Your empire falls.
Mother has gone.
And everything's wrong.
And everything's wrong.

Just hold your tongue.
Don't speak, those words you say are perverse.
Upside-down and in reverse.
Still we watch it all come tumbling down.

Domination.
Subjugation.
Abuse of power.

Oh father, what have you done?
Your empire falls.
Mother has gone.
And everything's wrong.
And everything's wrong.

It's all a game to you.
You wait to make your move.
Two-faced and countless charades.
It's just a game to you.

Oh father, what have you done?
Your empire falls.
Mother has gone.
Mother has gone.
Mother has gone.
And everything's wrong.
And everything's wrong.

What have you done?
