Em C

There is trouble in my mind

D5 C

There is dark, there is dark and there is light

Em C

Lay your hands over my eyes

D5 C

Cause I look deep, through valleys deep and wide

C/b Am

Across the borderline

D5 Em

For the empire of my mind

You are the reason I don’t sleep

You are alive, breaking through the leaves

You know how hard I try,

to believe I have something good inside

Over barracades I climb

For the empire of my mind

I have no love somwhere in time

I’ve been lifted up

I’ve looked honor in the eyes

I have no reason, I have no right

I cannot deny there’s a darkness inside

I’m guilty by desire

And now I realize

The temptations make me glide

To the empire of my mind

Em C

There is no order

C/b Am

There is chaos

And there is crime

D5

There is no one alone tonight

Em

With the empire of my mind

There is no distance I don’t see

I do have a will no minute to my breach

I wish I would, I wish i might

See a line tonight, seperating wrong from right

Some are only ones you try

Maybe that’s the reaosn why

I’m afraid someday i’ll die

with the empire of my mind

Enjoy!
