"Empire" lyrics
Empires fade away
See the game that people play
I'm not of a kind
That leaves it his faith
If all you wanna hear are lies
Don't knock at my door
You would only realise
We're waiting for the blur
We can only wait it out
I know I can make it stop
Maybe you should let it happen
And wait for the blur
It used to be a random place
Used to be a stranger's face
Did it take you by surprise
When it started to blur?
Everything we are
Hanging in the fear
It's a kind of fever for people
Strong as we are
Everything we are
Hanging in the fear
It's a kind of fever for people
Strong as we are
Won't you be the one who
Leads me to the unknown?
And I'm waiting, wondering
How long you can keep me on my throne
Won't you be the one who
Leads me to the unknown?
And I'm waiting, wondering
If we're strong as we are
Strong as we are
Desires fade away
Don't know what I should have said
The blur made me blind
Alone I lay
You promised that if I allowed
To open up the gates
You'd know how to find me
But you backed out
You let me down, you let me down, you think
You sent me down, you let me drown again
Everything we are
Hanging in the fear
It's a kind of fever for people
Strong as we are
Everything we are
Hanging in the fear
It's a kind of fever for people
Strong as we are
Won't you be the one who
Leads me to the unknown?
And I'm waiting, wondering
How long you can keep me on my throne
Won't you be the one who
Leads me to the unknown?
And I'm waiting, wondering
If we're strong as we are
Everything we are
Hanging in the fear
It's a kind of fever for people
Strong as we are
Everything we are
Hanging in the fear
It's a kind of fever for people
Strong as we are
It's a fever for people, fever for people
Fever for people, fever for people
Fever for people, fever for people
Fever for people, fever for people
Won't you be the one who
Leads me to the unknown?
And I'm waiting, wondering
How long you can keep me on my throne
Won't you be the one who
Leads me to the unknown?
And I'm waiting, wondering
If we're strong as we are
Strong as we are
See the game that people play
I'm not of a kind
That leaves it his faith
If all you wanna hear are lies
Don't knock at my door
You would only realise
We're waiting for the blur
We can only wait it out
I know I can make it stop
Maybe you should let it happen
And wait for the blur
It used to be a random place
Used to be a stranger's face
Did it take you by surprise
When it started to blur?
Everything we are
Hanging in the fear
It's a kind of fever for people
Strong as we are
Everything we are
Hanging in the fear
It's a kind of fever for people
Strong as we are
Won't you be the one who
Leads me to the unknown?
And I'm waiting, wondering
How long you can keep me on my throne
Won't you be the one who
Leads me to the unknown?
And I'm waiting, wondering
If we're strong as we are
Strong as we are
Desires fade away
Don't know what I should have said
The blur made me blind
Alone I lay
You promised that if I allowed
To open up the gates
You'd know how to find me
But you backed out
You let me down, you let me down, you think
You sent me down, you let me drown again
Everything we are
Hanging in the fear
It's a kind of fever for people
Strong as we are
Everything we are
Hanging in the fear
It's a kind of fever for people
Strong as we are
Won't you be the one who
Leads me to the unknown?
And I'm waiting, wondering
How long you can keep me on my throne
Won't you be the one who
Leads me to the unknown?
And I'm waiting, wondering
If we're strong as we are
Everything we are
Hanging in the fear
It's a kind of fever for people
Strong as we are
Everything we are
Hanging in the fear
It's a kind of fever for people
Strong as we are
It's a fever for people, fever for people
Fever for people, fever for people
Fever for people, fever for people
Fever for people, fever for people
Won't you be the one who
Leads me to the unknown?
And I'm waiting, wondering
How long you can keep me on my throne
Won't you be the one who
Leads me to the unknown?
And I'm waiting, wondering
If we're strong as we are
Strong as we are
