"Empress" lyrics
"Empress"
Woe to thee with fearful eyes, their lighthouse is burning up
And down goes the ship in which they wasted their whole lives
Cursed are tongues that speak in only can't's, and won't's, and
Oh, what if the world went and died, left you buried in regrets
You never kissed the ceiling
Broke are feet with timid souls that only move an inch, no more
No, don't you even try to take a step the other way
Useless are the hands that rule, they're tightly bound, so fake
So full of fear that someday they're handed opportunity
They never kissed the ceiling
Blessed are the minds that need no disguise
That fly up o'er mountain
Dance like an empress, you'll impress them all
Unmask the beauty you're given
Oh, and shame to thee with harden hearts, feel for nothing, cry for none
Your own flesh and blood, ripped of life before your eyes
Sickened are the selfish souls that spread disease to those with hope
They steal away the ones that try to save the mess they've made
They never kissed the ceiling
Blessed are the minds that need no disguise
That fly up o'er mountain
Dance like an empress, you'll impress them all
Unmask the beauty you're given
Oh, and kiss the ceiling
Woe to thee with fearful eyes, their lighthouse is burning up
And down goes the ship in which they wasted their whole lives

Could wrestle on the floor
Of the living room, shedding our cocoons
Oh the telescope, oh the crescent moon
Open the drawer, sister by the door
Where you hide...
The Amazing Devil - "Pray" My eyes are made of winter and these hands I hold are skin and bone
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Our bedsheets thrown, the meals gone cold
I know you, I know you of old

Penny & Sparrow - "Valjean" Pardon me sir
But did you hear me
I said there's a girl
Her momma passed over
She can't see the world
She's wrapped up in evil
Yes pardon me sir
I'm gonna go get her
And you have to let me go
Yes you...
Jukebox The Ghost - "Special" You never know when someone you love
Might go down, never come back up
So take that chance, say what you can
Life never goes as we plan
And on one day you won't have to say
Why didn't I say
