If I could look at all the things I've left in the past Stack each brick that held any mass Ball up every pillow case That I cried into when I was out of place I would assemble my own empire I would assemble my own empire I would assemble my own empire I've seen my flag waving high Nearly in the sky Nearly in the way of my sight It's burnin' bright I burned my own empire down I burned my own empire down I burned my own empire down I couldn't see myself too clear Looked in the eyes of a broken mirror Nothin' came back at me I'm trippin' over everything I see I burned my own empire down I burned my own empire down I burned my own empire down I wonder how I will die I wonder if you'll cry Maybe you'll be gone as well Trippin' over everything we fell I burned my own empire down I burned my own empire down I burned my own empire down I burned my own empire down I burned my own empire down I burned my own empire down I burned my own empire down I burned my own empire down Down! Down! Down! Written by Anthony Retka ©2010/2020/2023 | All Rights Reserved
