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.
I swear this mountain's high
A long way below
If you can reach this height
There's nowhere left to go
But down
So were we wasting all our time
On this endless climb?
If you look you'll find
We've built an empire
We are heroes
We conquered this town
Don't try, don't try to stop us now
We're living higher than high
We built an empire
From dust into stars
Don't try, don't try to fight it now
We are fire, on fire, on fire
I know this mountain's high
