Empire

Lyrics for Empire

Skyscrapers Earthmovers Ground breakers Our buildings rival the heavens Our bridges span the seas Ingenuity is so cunning Innovation is not ours, creativity is a luxury We build with our hands what we have in our hearts Fight the avalanche You'll be buried every time We run and run and run Keep falling behind Fight the avalanche You'll be buried every time We run and run and run Always last in line Before lines were lines Before time was time The author wrote a story in the sky and earth below Little do we know We have only what we're given Light up the sky (light up the sky) We're going where no man has ever gone Little do we know We have only what we're given Light up the sky We're going where no man's forgotten Who you are is all we want It burns inside us all We're finding heart in giving soul We're walking home into thin air singing We are justice fighters With faces of fire Many walk away But we stand firm We are justice fighters With faces of fire Our decisions affect our descendants We are justice fighters With faces of fire Skyscrapers Earthmovers Ground breakers Our footsteps bringing purpose Changing history Skyscrapers Earthmovers Ground breakers Our footsteps bringing purpose Changing history
