Weyes Blood:

Lyrics:

Lookin’ like some clear skies

Have finally opened up my eyes

Livin’ in a lost time

The dawning of a brand new man

So much blood on our hands

The king and queen of being lonely

Children of the empire see

That we’re all lost

Comes a cost walking in the labyrinth without love

How much can you take

And when are you gonna be ok

Gain control of what we made

Instead of being afraid

Children of the empire say

That we’re long gone

In that eternal flame

Trying to break away

From the mess we made

Oh we don’t have time anymore to be afraid

We tend to live long that’s why so many things go wrong

People selling the young blood

I guess that’s the price you pay

Make desire but no one wins

Won’t the fire burn us in

Before we get a chance to love again

Children understand that they pay for their sins

Seize control of what they made

Before we all fade away

Children of the empire wanna change

Cause we’re long gone

In that eternal flame

Trying to break away

From the mess we made

Oh we don’t have time anymore

To be afraid, anymore

Children of the empire know

Know that they’re not free

Even though they wanna be free

We know that we’re not free

Even though

We wanna be free
