How to Make Love Stay - Empire! Empire! (I Was a Lonely Estate)

City lights graced interstates

The way you move your hands

Through your hair when you feel alone

Through your hair when you feel alone

Remember the flowers you picked

When we crossed over madison?

You were so sure you found yourself

That you branded it into an oak

The one you swore reached through the sky

And swallowed the city line

You had yet to hit twenty-three

An age that would swallow you

Then, every breath made you confess

You did not know what to do with your hands

This is a new side of you

So full of fear
