Lyrics
Here I am with my empire
I'll bring you to your knees
Ebb and flow with my desire
It's all that you've been taught to be
You are the bastard son of what's been overcome
And again we plant the seed
The blade jumps from your mouth
You're eager to be proud of what I let you see
'Cause we made quite sure you could never leave
Here I am with my empire
I'll bring you to your knees
Ebb and flow with my desire
It's all that you've been taught to be
I speak of no parades
Ignore the sense of rage
That's welling up inside
It's been a matter of what we do
'Cause I'll sell it all to you
In modern luxuries
'Cause we made quite sure you believe you're free
Here I am with my empire
I'll bring you to your knees
Ebb and flow with my desire
It's all that you've been taught to be
From the cradle to the grave
We've tried not to be saved
From what we own
Predicting nothing's fair
And now it seems too vast
We're fighting for the right to die alone
Just believe
Believe you're free
It doesn't matter, just be sure
That this is our empire, this is war
Forgotten heroes of chessboard brawls
Just make your own stake, your selfish mark
But you're on your own
Here I am with my empire
I'll bring you to your knees
Ebb and flow with my desire
It's all that you've been taught to be
