Artist/Band: Mercury Rev
Lyrics for Song: Empire State
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Mercury Rev



Hard as the kick in a young man's stride/I stabbed

myself back into the night/One heel in front,

one heel behind/Life in the Empire State.

..Angels and devils before my eyes/The palms of my

hands hung by my side/Helpless I watched them destroy

and divide/Life in the Empire State.

..Cold were my bones, warm was the fire,

white was yr face cast to my mind/Bright as ever any

light that shined/On Life in the Empire State Into

the Void I roared in vain,

what if the South's gonna do it again,

promise you'll b by my side for the end Of Life in

the Empire State... Shrug off the shifting weight of

home/And hope that the Almight Anchor will hold/Was

there room in yr heart for yr weakest son all along/Whistle

sirens the Blind comin' on.

..No matter how lion-hearted my will I still stray

beyond?I threw up my hands and swore I'd find more

in yr arms/Was the Narrow Way there in our midst all

along/Sounds like the empire State's comin' on...
