My Morning Jacket - Remnants Lyrics

remnants of the empire- artifacts of love.
will i meet the designer, what will he dream up?
remnants of the empire- gravity awake...
what's held down to the ground next round goes into space.
raising up the empire- innocence and faith-
what will hold you up and what will stand in your way?

then i saw a new "heaven" - formed in the bleeding light of dusk-
all souls, all faiths, always- we were one.
there i saw a new "heaven" - formed in the bleeding light of dusk-
all souls, all faiths- always- we are one.

raise a bayonet in the dark, for all the human race.
watch out watch out you could go the same way.

taking out the empire- watching from afar
it's not too late, we could wake a new fate.

then i saw a new "heaven" - formed in the bleeding light of dusk-
all souls, all faiths, always- we were one.
there i saw a new "heaven" - formed in the bleeding light of dusk-
all souls, all faiths- always- we are one.
