Empire (Live at the Royal Albert Hall)

[Intro: Oli Sykes]
So, it's twelve years and a week today we played our first ever show, this is all for you

[Chorus: Oli Sykes, Choral & Crowd]
Surrender the throne
The blood on my hands covered the holes
We've been surrounded by vicious cycles
Are we're truly alone
The scars on your heart are yours to atone
We've been surrounded
Let 'em sing, let 'em sing!
Come on!

[Verse: Oli Sykes & Choral]
The deeper you dig, the darker it gets
There's nowhere else for us to go
We live what we learn, and then we forget
We'll never find our way back home, come on

[Pre-Chorus: Oli Sykes & Choral]
They came like moths to a flame
You left like a house in a hurricane
The wolves are at my door

[Chorus: Oli Sykes & Jordan Fish]
It's the start of the end, surrender the throne
The blood on my hands covered the holes
We've been surrounded by vicious cycles
It's the start of the end, and we're truly alone
The scars on your heart are yours to atone
We've been surrounded
Let 'em sing, let 'em sing!

[Breakdown: Oli Sykes & Choral]
I hear them clawin' at the gates
Let us in, let us in
I hear them callin' out my name
Let them sing, let them sing, let them sing
Let the bastards sing
Let them sing, let them sing
Let the bastards sing
Let them sing, let them sing
Let the bastards sing
Let the godforsaken bastards sing

[Pre-Chorus: Oli Sykes & Choral]
They came like moths to a flame
You left like a house in a hurricane
The wolves are at my door
But I can't see the writin' on the walls
The wolves are at my door
Waitin' for my empire to fall

[Chorus: Oli Sykes & Jordan Fish]
It's the start of the end, surrender the throne
The blood on my hands covered the holes
We've been surrounded by vicious cycles
It's the start of the end, and we're truly alone
The scars on your heart are yours to atone
We've been surrounded
Let 'em sing, let 'em sing!
