Lyrics
Empire
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.
Aren't you tired, aren't you sleepy (never going nowhere)
Can't you see what's wrong with you (comes with someone)
I am summer, gonna crush us (never going nowhere)
Change our skin, leave us ashes
I just wanna know
How long you're going to keep me
Locked out of your empire
Dancing pretty spins my mind (never going nowhere)
Racing into steals my time (comes with someone)
In the action, breaking down (never going nowhere)
Moving lightly and never ending
R
