Imperial Deception Song

A song about the decadence of Imperial society

---

Golden goblets overflow with wine
A sultry dancer with eyes so fine
A circlet of rubies crowns her head
Tangled blankets as you fall in bed

Hot grease drips into the blazing fire
Grapes dangle as mouths open with desire
Blue velvet and golden trim abound
So many sordid delights surround

But what is the cost of such wonderful things?
No amount of gold can hide the rot it brings
Fangs lurk beneath brightly painted lips
As innocence falls like arrows from our ships

We dance until our tired feet bleed
Gorge upon all the delicacies and mead
The lovely deception will tarnish the gold
When we finally realize how much we've sold
