Children Of The Empire

(album: And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow - 2022)

Looking like some clear skies
Have finally opened up my eyes
Living in a lost time
The dawning of a brand new man
So much blood on our hands
The king and queen of being lonely
Children of the empire see
That we're all lost

Comes a cost walking in the labyrinth without love
How much can you take
And when are you gonna be ok
Gain control of what we made
Instead of being afraid
Children of the empire say

That we're long gone
In that eternal flame
Trying to break away
From the mess we made
Oh we don't have time anymore to be afraid

We tend to live long that's why so many things go wrong
People selling the young blood
I guess that's the price you pay
Make desire but no one wins
Won't the fire burn us in
Before we get a chance to love again
Children understand that they pay for their sins
Seize control of what they made
Before we all fade away
Children of the empire wanna change

Cause we're long gone
In that eternal flame
Trying to break away
From the mess we made
Oh we don't have time anymore
To be afraid, anymore

Children of the empire know
Know that they're not free
Even though they wanna be free
We know that we're not free
Even though
We wanna be free
