Wallflowers - EMPIRE OF MY MIND lyrics

rate me

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
