Mercury Rev - Empire State Lyrics




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...
