empire Lyrics

Train ride stop from Tokyo

Don't know how I went from Japan, Missouri to Japan

You say I don't try, but you'll never know

How hard I try to fit you right in my plans

Left you on read by accident

You called our relationship one of your accidents

Oh, you never know how hard I try

No, you never know how hard I try

I feel trapped in my big empire

All the lights are off to pay respect to me

Inside the city

Full of guards, was once a boy with only stars

Lights off in the city to pay respect to you

You don't have many would kill to be you

Leave me at the train station, taking you home

Bet you rue the day you let me sit on your throne

I miss you so much, but what you did

Doesn't define you, since we're both just kids

I try to remember that, when I remember you

Keep me awake at night, with my midnight blues

I feel trapped in my big empire

All the lights are off to pay respect to me

Inside the city

Full of guards, was once a boy with only stars

Every day is the same

Without you I don't know what to do

Except wait for you

Left you broken with your stars

When you got ripped open all the stars floated all away

Every day and night it seems

I regret leaving you in my dreams

You wouldn't know

Every path my private jet goes

It leads to you and my home

I don't wanna ask you to let go, oh, no

You text me late in the night

"Are you awake?" and I reply, foolishly

You're coming over and I ask why

You said, "I felt disconnected, and I

Booked the next flight"

Oh, no, I'm coming for the holidays tonight

Because

I feel trapped in my big empire

All the lights are off to pay respect to me

Inside the city

Full of guards, was once a boy with only stars

Was once a boy with stars

Was once a boy with stars

I feel trapped in my big empire

All the lights are off to pay respect to me

Inside the city

Full of guards, was once a boy with only stars
