Empire Lyrics

[Intro]
And all the forces collide
And all the forces collide

[Verse 1]
Beat me down I wanna hear it
I wanna hear this crash and burn
Tear it down I wanna feel it
I will not be taken again
I'll prove it to you
I'll prove my strength is more than sight
We hear the change, and feel the strain
I'll lead this fight

[Refrain]
And all the forces collide
And in this space and time
This Empire is mine
And all the forces collide
And in this space and time
This Empire is mine

[Verse 2]
I never wanted to be anything more
Than anyone else and it's hard to breathe
I cannot wait for the emptiness to sink inside of me
I never wanted to be anything more
Than anyone else in this drowning city
I cannot wait for the emptiness to hide this light in me
Everything collides at light speed
It's left waiting for you
The sun is calling us

[Chorus]
We run, we run
Riding for the sun now
(It's calling us home, it's calling us)
And we're floating in circles
In spaces we're colliding
Get up, get out, let's chase the sun
This world's alive for everyone

[Bridge]
This Empire is mine
This Empire is mine
It's calling us
I never wanted to be anything more
Than anyone else in this drowning city
I cannot wait for the emptiness to hide this light in me

[Chorus]
We run, we run
Riding for the sun now
(It's calling us home, it's calling us)
And we're floating in circles
In spaces we're colliding
Get up, get out, let's chase the sun
This world's alive for everyone
We run, we run (we run)
Everything has changed
Our time has come
[Outro]
I never wanted to be anything more
Than anyone else in this fucking city
You are the cancer that none of us need
