Fall of the Empire

All roads lead to Rome As the migration begins So goes the fall of the empire Once invincible once respected now cursed Weakness in the Senate corruption speaks Destroyed internally by a lack of integriity in its Leaders Lies become truth Deception its dogma City burned but no lessons learned Historians document the fall but no notes taken Thought forsaken All roads lead to Washington.
