I rest my case
every time we kissed it left a bitter taste
On your cold lips baby
it was something that we couldn't fix
No way no way, no way no way
I can't change, can't change my ways
I hate to see you leaving but love to watch you go
Keep staring at the ceiling
when my world's about to blow
And I could chase the melody but I let you down
I play the darkest symphony when you're around
When the walls come down and face the fire
The end of my empire!
The end of my empire!
And I could chase the melody but I let you down
I play the darkest symphony when you're around
When the walls come down

Eighteen and life; did you ever think it would be like this?
He's got my eyes as well as whatever habits
let it be a bliss

No way, no way, no way, no way
You can't change, can't change your ways

I hate to see you leaving but love to watch you go
Keep staring at the ceiling
when my world's about to blow
And I could chase the melody but I let you down
I play the darkest symphony when you're around
When the walls come down and face the fire

The end of my empire, the end of my empire
And I could chase the melody, but I let you down
I play the darkest symphony when you're around
When the walls come down

I hate to see you leaving, but love to watch you go
Keep staring at the ceiling
when my world's about to blow
And I could chase the melody, but I let you down
I play the darkest symphony when you're around

The end of my empire!
The end of my empire!
The end of my empire!
