Empire Of My Mind
Album: Red Letter Days
Well, there is trouble in my mind
There is dark
Thereâs 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 donât 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
Iâve been lifted up
Iâve looked honor in the eyes
I have no reason; I have no rhyme
I cannot deny
Thereâs a darkness thatâs inside
I am guilty by design
And now I realize
The temptationâs 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 donât 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 thatâs the reason why
I am afraid someday Iâll find
There is no Empire in My Mind
There is trouble in my life
There is trouble in my life
