The empire's slave


Dreams are floating in our heads
The chemicals let us burn inside
We swore that we'd travel every way
On a rainy day

You know there's nothing left unsaid
But that's okay I guess we'll have to accept
Emotion thoughts drain me away

Every rainy day I pray for a happy end

You're free now "˜cause you couldn't win you war
There was a thunder while they only expected a storm
But I saw they hated to let you go
I know

Your illness drove the strength out of your life
Not once accepted that there wasn't more time
And I regret that I wasn't there

I want you to know that I prayed for a happy end

Well I learned life is not what it seems
Dragging of whatever I will be
But I'm swimming like a swan in the sea
Just let it be

Sometimes I didn't recognize my own tears
But you brought it safely home to me
Nowadays it hurts me to see you fade

I want you to know that I love you anyways
Nobody knows we're all slaves
