|
Did you hear that? |
|
There's a sound that they whisper |
|
I can't quite make it out |
|
But I keep trying |
|
Until you stop reminding that it was ever there |
|
I've been wading |
|
Through the sound that your voice makes |
|
That keeps me in this place |
|
Took me an entire |
|
A paralyzed reminder |
|
But were you ever there? |
|
The elements are sleeping |
|
And these memories are for keeping |
|
While the world awaits, |
|
It's burning to the ground |
|
Chorus: |
|
No one can really save us now |
|
And I don't care; I won't back down |
|
So when you see my face behind a smoking gun |
|
Tonight, bear the empire of my heart |
|
Fear the day you fall apart |
|
So mark my words: |
|
You've yet to taste your day in pain |
|
I'm through hating |
|
We can learn from disaster |
|
When you say open far |
|
My heart is an empire |
|
And you keep it alive by keeping me in pain |
|
The elements are sleeping |
|
And these memories are for keeping |
|
While the world awaits, |
|
it's burning to the ground |
|
Chorus |
