Lookin' like some clear skies Have finally opened up my eyes Livin' 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
