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.
And here we are agian- buried in my sheets.
Your fingers are whispers,
Saying the sofest things to every inch of my skin.
And even asleep these eyes of yours seem
To keep me on my toes.
They just swallow me whole.
Oh and this gift you left for me
Is one to put me to sleep in such a way that
I would never want to wake agian.
Cause we're so good at what we do.
With our arms crossed and our fingers locked we work like pefect
Puzzle pieces.
Cut right and formed to fit.
But its so diffrent when i know you've gone.
So take me quietly,
And i'll leave this body behind me.
Oh these rythms of mine are so inconsitant anyway.
Just one gasp and i'll be gone.
'cause i dont ever want, well i dont ever want to wake agian.
So leave the lights of tonight.
And i'll use this air as rope to drag myself up through my throat.
'cause i dont ever want, well i dont ever want to wake agian.
So leave the lights of tonight.
'cause i get so caught, i get so choaked up anyway with any thought of you. those looks you throw they level me.
