Invisible Empire by KT Tunstall

I thought the candle was gonna go out
The wind was blowing and the door was open
But the candle (1)__________ went out
Never went out

The (2)________ found its way to the shore
I (3)______________ it was a ripple and nothing more
But the (4)________ (5)__________ its way all the way
To the shore

(Oh oh) I wanna (6)________ (7)________ house
I know, I wanna jump into the fire
(Oh oh) I’ve got to tear them down
The pinnacles of my (8)__________________ empire

I know the gamble (9)__________ works twice
All the distractions of the table
And the (10)________________ dice
But the (11)____________ of it feels so nice
You’d do it all again

But I look to the chips and lose
I’m (12)________________ on the platform
With my neck in the noose
And I (13)________ it’s not my time
It’s not my time

(Oh oh) I wanna burn (14)________ house
I know, I wanna jump into the fire
(Oh oh) I’ve got to tear (15)________ down
The (16)__________________ of my invisible empire

And if I do all the things I do
Well, I (17)________ myself that I’m staying true
Know I’ll (18)__________ stop
You (19)________ I’ll never stop
You (20)________ I’ll never (21)__________ about it

Put an end to all this time
That I (22)__________ spend with it on my mind
You know it never stopped
You know it (23)__________ stopped
You (24)________ I always wondered about it

I wondered about the wonder
(Oh oh no oh oh) I wear a rusting crown
I (25)________ this (26)______________ is falling
The (27)__________ shouts for another round
I see the ruin
The spectacular
Diamonds buried
Icebergs, the minarets
And the marketplaces
The (28)____________ (29)__________ of my invisible empire
