Nobody's Empire Paroles

Paroles de Nobody's Empire

Lying on my bed I was reading french With the light too bright for my senses From this hiding place, life was way too much It was loud and rough round the edges So I faced the wall when an old man called Out of dreams that I would die there But a sight unseen, you were pulling strings And you had a different idea I was like a child, I was light as straw When my father lifted me up there Took me to a place where they checked my body My soul was floating in thin air I clung to the bed, and I clung to the past And I clung to the welcome darkness But at the end of the night There's a green green light It's the quiet before the madness There was a girl that sang like the chime of a bell She put out her arm and she touched me when I was in hell, when I was i hell Someone sang a song and I sang along Cause I knew the words from my childhood Intellect, ambition they fell away They locked me up for my own good But I didn't mind cause the silence was kind
And you spoke to me in whispers
There was the sound of the wind in the cold cold dawn
And the quiet hum of business
Let me dangle a while in this waiting room
I don't need to go I don't need to know what you're doing, what you're doing
