Exile (The Empress Returns)
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.
There was a time
When I let you tell me
That what I was was wrong
That was a time
When I didn't know me
That deep inside I could be strong
And so I went into the abyss
Away from the world
To walk a new path
I found freedom in the unknown
Carving something to call my own
In the night sky the stars above
Showed me a new way and I'm not alone
I used to think change was impossible
That I couldn't leave and come back
And now I have made it all possible
Now I'll take you out because I'm back
And now is the time
When I get to tell you
That what you are is wrong
And now is my time
When I can control me
And now I can stand and be strong
And now I've returned
The second coming
A new vision
I've found a force within
It must feel different now that I've shown
That I'll take you down on my own
I used to think change was impossible
That I couldn't leave arid come back
And now I have made it all possible
Now I'll take you out 'cause I'm back
