Day after day night after night
Squeezing your eyes for somebody's lost empire
Questioning old, questioning life
Posting the bills for somebody's own desire
I'm taking the notes, and everyone knows
At the light of a match my whole world will catch fire
Now you're dancing alone
While I'm standing up here
And everyones singing the same damn song and it goes
And I'm home

I'm glad I must say that I'm enticed with this time
Such a critical change to build my own empire
Developing space on such positive waves
I'm taking those notes and I'm filling in blanks
Discovering ease, recovering eyes
I'm blowing this smoke up
Everyones asked why
Now you're dancing alone
While I'm standing up here
And everyones singing the same damn song
And it goes

I can honestly say I wasn't questioning my
Decision to roll and create my own empire
Desired to know what it's like to be heard
All of these words there's just so many words
With such a beautiful day and such limitless time
I'll be blowing this smoke up
Everyone's asked why
