Empire is a single by September Mourning. It was released on October 12 2018.

Lyrics
My heart’s spent on your conscience

It’s in debt but I’m not

I’m always more than honest

It hurts more than I want

I’m tearin’ through the conflict

I’m sick of all the bullshit

I can’t breathe through the poison

To cleanse me of your haunting

Oooh

I never meant to give up my innocence

Oooh

Patience runs deep in my veins and I drown in it

Cause you gave me an empire

You made me your only queen

I didn’t know that my throne was built on guilt and fantasy

You gave me an empire

You already knew you’d leave

I watched it all as you burned down these walls

The ashes fall, like snow they bury me

I gave you someone empty

And scraped everything out

Kept all of my insides

And I left you with the doubt

I won’t give you the light that you’re swearing that you need

I’m tryin’ to contain it so I’m here still when you leave

Oooh

You never meant to give up indifference

Oooh

Your pulse runs deep in my veins and I drown in it

Cause you gave me an empire

You made me your only queen

I didn’t know that my throne was built on guilt and fantasy

You gave me an empire (gave me an empire)

You already knew you’d leave

I watched it all as you burned down these walls

The ashes fall, like snow they bury me

You bury me

In the madness of my heart

You gave me an empire

You made me your only queen

I didn’t know that my throne was built on guilt and fantasy

You gave me an empire (you gave me it all)

That you already knew you’d leave

I watched it all as you burned down these walls

The ashes fall, like snow they bury me
