Invisible Empire by KT Tunstall
I (1)______________ the candle was (2)__________ go out
The (3)________ was blowing and the (4)________ was open
But the (5)____________ never (6)________ out
Never went out
The wave (7)__________ its way to the shore
I thought it was a ripple and (8)______________ more
But the wave found its way all the way
To the shore
(Oh oh) I wanna burn this house
I know, I (9)__________ jump (10)________ the fire
(Oh oh) I’ve got to tear them down
The pinnacles of my invisible empire
I know the gamble never (11)__________ twice
All the (12)________________________ of the table
And the (13)________________ dice
But the (14)____________ of it feels so nice
You’d do it all again
But I look to the chips and lose
I’m standing 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 (15)__________ jump into the fire
(Oh oh) I’ve got to tear (16)________ down
The pinnacles of my invisible empire
And if I do all the things I do
Well, I (17)________ (18)____________ that I’m staying true
Know I’ll never stop
You (19)________ I’ll never stop
You (20)________ I’ll never think (21)__________ it
Put an end to all (22)________ time
That I would spend with it on my mind
You (23)________ it (24)__________ stopped
You know it never stopped
You know I always wondered about it
I wondered (25)__________ the wonder
(Oh oh no oh oh) I wear a rusting crown
I know this dynasty is falling
The crowd shouts for (26)______________ round
I see the ruin
The spectacular
Diamonds buried
Icebergs, the minarets
And the marketplaces
The signal fires of my invisible empire
