Empire

I'm looking at your soul (your soul, your soul, your soul)
I'm looking at your future (at your future, future, future)
As I look into your eye (your eye, your eye)
I see another side (another side, side, side)

Vampire, you feed on the life of a pure heart
Vampire, you suck the life of goodness
Vampire, you feed on the life of a pure heart
Vampire, you suck the life of goodness

Turn the lights on
Let the lights shine bright
Turn the lights on
Let the lights shine bright

You got to feel yourself and let go
You got to know you reap what you sow
You got to feel something at sometime
Check the writings on the wall and look into the sight

You're spending all your money on gear that never work
You're wasting all your energy, and everywhere it hurts
God, it really hurts, yes, it really hurts
You got to know yourself

Vampire, you feed on the life of a pure heart
Vampire, you suck the life of goodness, yes
Vampire, you feed on the life of a pure heart
Vampire, you suck the life of goodness

From now on, I'll call you England
From now on, I'll call you England
From now on, I'll call you England
From now on, I'll call you England

See, if you spit in the sky, it will fall in your eye
You see, what goes up must come down
You will die looking up if you're not looking in
You got to know yourself

I'm looking at your partners, and they will never agree
I'm looking for your justice, and it cannot be seen
I'm checking where you're coming from and where you're going to
I'm checking all of what you have done to see what you can do

I'm looking at your law books, and they were never read
I'm looking at your love squire, and they cannot be dread
I'm looking at your empire slipping down the drears
You got to know yourself

Vampire, you feed on the life of a pure heart
Vampire, you suck the life of goodness, yes
Vampire, you feed on the life of a pure heart
Vampire, you suck the life of goodness

From now on, I'll call you England (empire fall, man, empire go)
From now on, I'll call you England (there's a lesson to be learned)
(Why is that you must know?)
From now on, I'll call you England (and the rich is more like the fool that you fear)
From now on, I'll call you England (and I see no love anywhere you appear)
From now on, I'll call you England (you got to know yourself)
From now on, I'll call you England (you got to know yourself)
