Lyrics

In the Empire

God smiles or god don't

Feel a sign

Sweet talk

I'm alright

Fathers head

Has been misread

With lies oh lies

With lies oh lies

Empire

You're so easily pleased

Empire

Such a quick remedy remedy

All night bashful

Sweet tooth and natural

I.. i'm alright

Fathers head

Has been misread

With lies on lies

With lies on lies

Empire

You're so easily pleased

Empire

Such a quick remedy remedy

Empire

Empire

Empire

Empire

Oh yeah

You never know what you might find

You know you know

I'vе seen your fears and you've seen mine

You know you know

Up whеre the light shines

Up where the light shines

With pleasant days and pleasant times

You know you know

You never know what you might find

I know i know

Up where the light shines

Up where the light shines

Up where the light shines

Up where the light shines
