Running through unwinnable fights Shadows dance in the dimmest lights Hearts pounding like a battle drum Mind racing but the words won't come We wear the chains that bind the soul This empire takes but leaves a hole Through the screams we seek the Sun Freedom's fight has just begun Like a empire Like a empire In this empire our pain echoes Through the streets and the silent throes We cry for hope we cry for change In this empire we'll rearrange Like a empire We are fight Like a empire Like a empire Walls built high to cage the free The louder we shout the less they see But our voices rise in raging waves Breaking through these endless graves Oh the fire burns in every chest Refusing silence we detest The ashes fall but we ignite This empire crumbles in the night Like a empire Like a empire In this empire our pain echoes Through the streets and the silent throes We cry for hope we cry for change In this empire we'll rearrange Like a empire We are fight Like a empire Like a empire
