Empire On Fire

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I 've sold my heart

For stones

Just to overcome

What I fear

What I really hate

There is no way to live

Except being a crowned clumsy clown

So I got within my sins

Not to become so dumb

I have built my walls with fire

I'd rather live in my hell

I'm a king of an empire

I've made with my own hands

(No land, no crown, no queen)

I have built my walls with fire

So when this kingdom fall

I'm a king of an empire

I'll make myself the queen

(No land, no crown, no queen)

There is no way to live

Except being a crowned clumsy clown

I'm a king of an empire

In a reign of none

And I figure out a fear

But a fear that will never turn to faith

I've built my ruins to dream

Not to become undone

There is no life

There is no time

In my dreams

Forever

I've decided not to live

So you should never

Lay down on my thorns

Because you have to

In life we fear

[death

And in death we fear to live

Lost in a no return way

We stuck as everything dies

Fly away from me

I've got these chains attaching me to my own safety

You know who I am...

Fly away from me

Fly even when it seems the best just to wait?

You know who I am...

I bought my heart

For stones

Just to overcome

What I fear

What I really hate

There is no way to live

Despite being a crowned clumsy clown

So I got within my sins

Not to become so dumb

I have built my walls with fire

I'd rather live in my hell

I'm a king of an empire

I've made with my own hands

(No land, no crown, no queen)

I have built my walls with fire

So when this kingdom falls

I'm a king of an empire

I'll make myself the queen

(No land, no crown, no queen)

My own queen

And I'll never ever have to stand the fear (of another dream)

And I'll never ever have to stand the dream (of another fear)

And I'll never ever have to ask myself where I have lost myself

I have built my walls with fire

I'd rather live in my hell

I'm a king of an empire

I've made with my own hands

(No land, no crown, no queen)

I have built my walls with fire

'Couse when this kingdom falls

I'm a king of an empire

I'll fall in my disgrace

(No land, no crown, no queen)
