IHLO - Empire

Empire from the album 'Legacy' by Ihlo | OUT NOW https://ihlo.lnk.to/Legacy EMPIRE / LYRICS When the golden hour fades Will we build up from the ground? Fabled words that fell away Did they ever mean a thing to us? All left to ruin Ancient Ages breaking down If we keep on pretending To live under the shadow of the gods Mechanical Corrosion Bring us to the edge of ascension The pressure is weighing down on me And I know the cost is too great to change Picking apart brain and bone to feed our ego Building up and breaking it down Replicate dying dreams of Ancient empire Fallen kingdom All left to burn The dream is falling apart now And there is nothing left to save And it's overtaken me Every inch we gave away to them We sold for lies in the light Can there ever be an end If we move beyond these aging hands We're left to ruin Ancient ages breaking down If we keep on pretending to live under the shadow of the gods Mechanical Corrosion Bring us to the edge of darkness Where we thrive It's all just waiting to collapse I know you're strong Waiting for a sign to go And take that chance to fly away again You're stronger than you know Behind the pain inside our mind We are all one We dream the days and nights away We were pushed into a sleepless age A never ending isolation Lost inside a void
