new empire - a little braver
With December comes the glimmer on her face
And I get a bit nervous
I get a bit nervous now
In the twelve months on I won't make friends with change
When everyone's perfect
Can we start over again?
The playgrounds, they get rusty and your
Heart beats another ten thousand times before
I got the chance to say
I miss you
When it gets hard
I get a little stronger now
I get a little braver now
And when it gets dark
I get a little brighter now
I get a little wiser now
Before I give my heart away
Well we met each other at the house of runaways
I remember it perfectly, we were running on honesty
We moved together like a silver lock and key
But now that your lock has changed
I know I can't fit that way
The playgrounds, they get rusty and your
Heart beats another ten thousand times before
I got the chance to say
I want you
When it gets hard
I get a little stronger now
I get a little braver now
And when it gets dark
I get a little brighter now
I get a little wiser now
Before I give my heart away
When it gets hard
I get a little stronger now
I get a little braver now
And when it gets dark
I get a little brighter now
I get a little wiser now
Before I give my heart away
new empire - ghosts
This conversation is moving faster than I thought it would
An indication, something I thought I'd lost long ago
It's just like learning to swim; I've fallen in the deeper end, again
So would you chase me in, or for you is it pretend?
'Cuz I don't want to feel without you,
so tell me you believe in this too
Hide with all the ghosts in your bedroom,
they will keep you awake
We can escape, escape
We can escape
This conversation is moving faster than I thought it could
I'm chasing shadows as they surround you in this empty room
It's just like running a maze;
you never know what you can find, tonight
But as we're here now, everything in me wants to try
We could chase this feeling
But I just want you
'Cuz I don't want to feel without you,
so tell me you believe in this too
Hide with all the ghosts in your bedroom,
they will keep you awake
We can escape, escape
We can escape, escape
When I was younger
I would dream of this moment, and how
I thought it would never come
Now we're older I will dream of this moment,
the city puts a ghost in us
We could chase this feeling
But I just want you
'Cuz I don't want to feel without you,
so tell me you believe in this too
Hide with all the ghosts in your bedroom,
they will keep you awake
We can escape, escape
We can escape
When I was younger I would dream of this moment,
and how I thought it would never come
Now we're older I will dream of this moment,
the city puts a ghost in us
We can escape
new empire - one heart million voices
It may be over for now
But I am sure I'll see you again
One day my friend
When lights fade away
The memory remains
Time may take us take us far away
Surely time time can bring us back together
Like an old school reunion
I'll be standing at the door
And you'll still look the same
One heart with a million voices
One day it could all be gone
Hold on to the words they told us
Hold on to it all my son
Oh oh oh oh woah woah
Oh oh oh woah woah
Oh oh oh ohhhhh
It may be over for us
But seasons change oh they change for a reason
With the autumn leaves that fall down
I wrote your name across them all
So you know that I'm here with you
And spring is coming soon my friend
One heart with a million voices
One day it could all be gone
Hold on to the words they told us
Hold on to it all my son
One heart with a million voices
One day it could all be gone
Hold on to the words they told us
Hold on to it all
Just stay forever
Can't come back to me
Just stay forever
Can't come back to me
Would you just stay forever
Can't come back
One heart with a million voices
One day it could all be gone
Hold on to the words they told us
Hold on to it all my son
One heart with a million voices
One chance to remember your name
Hold to the words they told us
Hold on to it all
Oh oh woah oh woaah
new empire - walk in the park
Put the fire out
and pour some wine
Maybe we can take a walk in the park
what if I can't breathe
and start to drown
inside your eyes
It feels like a wave
a tidal wave of things I've never felt
like a wave
pretend to wave just as you go under
Leave your hand in mine
and take a step
one more brings us closer than we?ve ever been
For the first time I
Start to fill my lungs
and feels so perfect
and it pulls you in
if you don't let go
and it pulls you in
if you don't let go
Now the sidewalk ends
and the sand begins
but I hesitate because I'm scarred
and you whisper out
?here's my heart now wash it away?
wash it away
before, we met, I could, never understand how to breathe so I'll never drown
never drown inside your eyes
It feels like a wave
a tidal wave of things I've never felt
like a wave
pretend to wave just as you go under
and it pulls you
it pulls you in
new empire - sooner or later
