EMPIRE
There’s a grey wolf on the mountain
You can feel her as she swallows all the secrets
you buried in the deep
There s a black sky in the dark cold
And its dressed up with dancing white gold and it’s circling
through the night and straight into me
We destroyed everything
Destroyed everything that was good
We destroyed everything good
Oh oh oh
Is this our empire?
Is this our empire?
Oh oh oh
Is this our empire?
Is this our empire at our feet?
There is so much I could have said and now I’m counting
All the hours I have left to tell you anything
Cause we are born and then we die
and in between we are alive
So we let the bells ring, let the bells ring
We destroyed everything
Destroyed everything that was good
We destroyed everything good
Oh oh oh
Is this our empire?
Is this our empire?
Oh oh oh
Is this our empire?
Is this our empire?
Oh oh oh
Is this our empire?
Is this our empire?
Oh oh oh
Is this our empire?
Is this our empire at our feet?

We Are Fire

We are fire
A diamond in between
It’s who you’ve always been
It’s who you’ve always been
Half empty, half complete
Is how you’re always seen
How you’re always seen
You were made from Wolves
but you’re not a monster
You were made from wolves
So raise your head up high
Let your feet lift to the sky
We were made to fight
Don’t ask why, don’t ask why
We are fire
We are fire
Glacier blue and wild
Are you calling me?
Are you calling me?
Your eyes gleam of mountainside
And I’m falling in
And I’m falling in
You were made from wolves
So raise your head up high
Let your feet lift to the sky
We were made to fight
Don’t ask why, don’t ask why
We are fire
We are fire
So raise your head up high
Let your feet lift to the sky
We were made to fly
You and I
So raise your head up high
There’s so much left before we die
We were made to fight
Don’t ask why, don’t ask why
We are fire
We are fire

DRIFTING AWAY
I want a real love
to swallow me up
I want to feel it crashing in
blend in to my skin
I want to feel love
I want a whole heart
made up of two parts
I want to feel it cover me
like it’s all that I believe
I want a whole heart
am I asking too much
I feel guilty all the time
am I too much
I think I need more than this
have we lost us
or are we just drifting away
I want a light house
keeping a lookout
chase me in the spotlight
a safety in the night
I want a light house
am I asking too much?
I feel guilty all the time
am I too much?
I think I need more than this
have we lost us?
or are we just drifting away
drowning in my own tears
we drown drown drown
drowning in my own tears
we drown drown drown
am I asking too much?
I feel guilty all the time
am I too much?
I think I need more than this
have we lost us?
or are we just drifting away

You can get addicted
To the high and low
So you sleep away the day and
go out in the night
And you reach for anyone
Another broken in the bar
Who gets you high and holds you
In the dark
I fall in to you
You fall in to me
I fall in to you
And you fall in to me
We’re bleeding on the dancefloor
I want you close up
bleeding on the dancefloor
I want you close up
You can get addicted
To all of your ghosts
They carry you around
Everywhere you go
And with each waking breath
You try to set a spark
Try to find the way to light the dark
And I fall in to you
You fall in to me
I fall in to you
And you fall in to me
We’re bleeding on the dancefloor
I want you close up
bleeding on the dancefloor
I want you close up
This could be,….this could be…..
The start of something
We’re bleeding on the dancefloor
This could be the start of something
bleeding on the dancefloor
this could be the start of something.
We’re bleeding on the dancefloor
This could be the start of something
bleeding on the dancefloor
this could be the start of something.

Baby I know
03:20
|
|||
You were always walking a tightrope
For most of your life
A little kid with a dream of
making everything right
But the brave don’t always get
All praise all applause
And the loneliness sets in
it settles in your bones
Baby I know
Baby I know
You were always playing the long game
For most of your time
Forgiving everyone’s faults again
Every day and every night
But the giver don’t always get
All the praise, all applause
So the tiredness sets in
it settles in your bones
Baby I know
Baby I know
Baby I know
Baby I know
time leads you on carry on carry on
to the place we belong, carry on, carry on
Baby I know
baby I know
Baby I know
Baby I know.

Animal
04:22

My heart is a raging volcano for you
I found a strength inside I never even knew
Think of doing everything, everything to you
Don’t be cool; Please tell me all the things you have inside
The world might end, don’t want to waste more time
I just want you to want to be mine
Want you to want to be
an animal
ohhhh
an animal
ohhhh
I get lost in your eyes and in your chest and in your lungs
I want to listen to the words roll off your tongue
You make me wanna, want to stay young
You make me wanna, wanna be…..
an animal
ohhhh
an animal
ohhhh
AAA NIII MAAAAA LLL
an animal
ohhhh
an animal
ohhhh

Cruel Spring
05:18
|
|||
It’s been a long day, a long day ahead
Lately I’ve been wearing thin
I’ve been running around with strange thoughts in my head
Don’t know where to start, where to begin
I used to be a conqueror
A warrior a fighter never afraid
But it’s been a long day
Oh my love
Oh my love
Oh my love
Oh my love
It’s been a long year
Months and months away
I call you from ten thousand miles
Could touch the empty space, and I don’t know what to say
Can’t find the good words after a while
Except I love you like the sky loves the birds
Like the forest loves the bears
But it’s been a long year
Oh my love
Oh my love
Oh my love
Oh my love
We used to be lovers
wild tigers walking among kings
but it’s been the cruelest spring
Oh my love…….

Sleep Little Queen
04:33
|
|||
Some people say the world is dark
others only see the light
Some people sit by themselves
Feeding ducks night after night
Some people never leave their homes
others fly around the world
Some people like to make new things
Others just follow the herd
Some people build empires out of nothing
I like to think you’ll be that kind
Sleep, little queen
Good night
Some people have loads of money
others hardly feed themselves
Some people would hibe their last meal
Some never give anything away
Some people build empires out of nothing
I like to think you’ll be that kind
Sleep, little queen
Good night
Dream til the morning
I’ll be on the other side
And when you’re waking
Keep your eyes open wide
When you find the world is dark and grey
When you’re alone I’ll help you find your way
through the storm,
No matter what they say
Some people build empires out of nothing
I hope you’ll never meet that kind
Sleep, little queen
Good night

Shed No Tears For Me
04:01
|
|||
We were born
wild as the sea
kings of the trails
rulers of the streets
You were so brave
With your lightning heart
But the lightning fades
And the sorrow starts
We’re so wounded now
Fall harder on the ground
Shed no tears for me
In this tired time
I need something to shine
shed no tears for me
Just take my hand
make me believe
but shed no tears for me
When I was fifteen
Someone stopped me in my tracks
Once you get a taste
There’s no turning back
but we were just kids
and hearts are so cruel
falling face first
breaking the rules
We’re so wounded now
Fall harder to the ground
shed no tears for me
I need something inspiring
I need something to shine
shed no tears for me
Just take my hand
help me believe
but shed no tears for me
