My Empire

Tears fell like closed hands
Swallowed by quicksand

Hangin' by a thread
But I still bleed red
Shivers down my spine
But I'm still alive

My demons come to drag me away
To bury me in eternity
I turn my fear into fire
Now I'm building my empire

I'll build it up again

Eyes shaped like X's
Black roses turned red
Shedding every sin
Untapped, I begin

My demons come to drag me away
To bury me in eternity
I turn my fear into fire
Now I'm building my empire

My dreamless mind is lifting from me
'Cause now I'm finding new gravity
I turn my fear into fire
So I'll turn into my empire

My empire
My empire
I'll build my empire
I'll build my empire

My demons come to drag me away
To bury me in eternity
I turn my fear into fire
Now I'm building my empire

(My empire) I'll build my throne from these broken dreams
(My empire) I'm cracked and torn, split from the seams

I'm still king of my world on fire
So I'll turn it into my empire
