Well, there is trouble in my mind
|
There is dark
|
There's dark, and there is light.
|
I lay our hands over my eyes
|
As I look deep
|
Through valleys deep and wide
|
Across the border line
|
For the Empire in My Mind
|
|
You are the reason I don't sleep
|
You are the light
|
That's breaking through the leaves
|
You know how hard I try
|
To believe
|
I have something good inside
|
Over barricades I climb
|
For the Empire in My Mind.
|
|
I have no love somewhere in time
|
I've been lifted up
|
I've looked honor in the eyes
|
I have no reason; I have no rhyme
|
I cannot deny
|
There's a darkness that's inside
|
I am guilty by design
|
And now I realize
|
The temptation's made me blind
|
To the Empire in My Mind
|
|
There is no order
|
There is chaos
|
And there is crime
|
There is no one home tonight
|
In the Empire in My Mind
|
|
There is no distance that I don't see
|
I do have a will
|
No limit to my reach
|
I wish I would; I wish I might
|
See a line tonight
|
Separating wrong from right
|
Some are only born to try
|
And maybe that's the reason why
|
I am afraid someday I'll find
|
There is no Empire in My Mind
|
|
There is trouble in my life
|
There is trouble in my life
|
