Empire

With nothin' left to lose, anyway
We fell for lightning, and thunder carried you away
We sailed against the wind all season
With nothin' left to win, anyway

Stolen hearts on rollin' waves

There's nothin' so sublime
As the Carolinas from Georgia's corner line
There's nothin' so divine as drivin', you by my side
Drivin'

Tried to make our own rules
Tearin' down, buildin' up
Tired of payin' up
Tearin' down normal love
Tired of

Don't get carried away, honey -- don't get brave
I've got relics in my pocket, we can stop it if you're
Really tired of workin', tired of tryin', tired of lovin' me
"Well I'm just tired of drivin'"
Then hand the wheel to me

So we make our own rules
The highway's tough on normal love
So we make it up
You break me down, I call your bluff

The highway's rough on hotel love
But the highway's right for hotel life
The highway's right

We created an empire with concrete floors
We created an empire on rollin' fours
And sure as Satan stands a post outside our door
Next year in Empire, he shall no more
Next year in Empire, he shall no more
