I'm not proud of my past actions
I wasn't always right
Couldn't lose dissatisfaction
In comfort of disguise
I will not bury my life
Under what you call right
No longer can I pretend that I'm blind
That I'm blind
And I can't stand
To be on my knees
I can't stand the pain, the anger inside of me
Can't stand lying to myself
I want to be me
And nobody else
And nobody
Always tried to be accepted
Never really fit
Scared to leave and left to be scared
Broken, you said it
I will not bury my life
Under what you call right
No longer can I pretend that I'm blind
That I'm blind
And I can't stand
To be on my knees
I can't stand the pain, the anger inside of me
Can't stand lying to myself
I want to be me
And nobody else
Why the fuck I'm here
(And I can't stand)
Why the fuck I'm here
(I can't stand the pain)
Why the fuck I'm here
Why
You make me wanna leave
(This is)
(This is Empire)
And I can't stand
(This is Empire)
And nobody else
(This is Empire)
