Invisible Empire by KT Tunstall

I (1)______________ the (2)____________ was gonna go out
The (3)________ was (4)______________ and the door was open
But the candle never (5)________ out
Never went out

The wave found its way to the shore
I thought it was a ripple and nothing more
But the wave found its way all the way
To the shore

(Oh oh) I wanna burn this house
I know, I (6)__________ (7)________ (8)________ the fire
(Oh oh) I’ve got to (9)________ them down
The pinnacles of my invisible empire

I know the gamble never (10)__________ twice
All the distractions of the table
And the weighted dice
But the thrill of it feels so nice
You’d do it all again

But I (11)________ to the chips and lose
I’m (12)________________ on the platform
With my neck in the noose
And I know it’s not my time
It’s not my time

(Oh oh) I wanna burn this house
I know, I (13)__________ jump into the fire
(Oh oh) I’ve got to tear them down
The pinnacles of my invisible empire

And if I do all the things I do
Well, I (14)________ myself that I’m staying true
Know I’ll never stop
You know I’ll never stop
You know I’ll never (15)__________ (16)__________ it

Put an end to all this time
That I would spend with it on my mind
You know it (17)__________ stopped
You know it (18)__________ stopped
You know I (19)____________ (20)________________ (21)__________ it

I (22)________________ (23)__________ the wonder
(Oh oh no oh oh) I wear a rusting crown
I know this dynasty is falling
The crowd shouts for (24)______________ round
I see the ruin
The spectacular
Diamonds buried
Icebergs, the minarets
And the marketplaces
The (25)____________ (26)__________ of my invisible empire
