Empire Now Song Lyrics
[Chorus: Hozier]
Sun coming up on a dream come around
One hundred years from the empire now
Sun coming up on a world that's easy now
One hundred years from, one hundred years from
Sun coming up on a dream come around
One hundred years from the empire now
Sun coming up on a world that's easy now
One hundred years from, one hundred years from
[Pre-Chorus: Hozier]
After all, darling, I wouldn't sell the world
The way that things are turning
If it falls, I would hold on for all it's worth
The future's so bright it's burning
[Chorus: Hozier]
Sun coming up on a dream come around
One hundred years from thе empire now
Sun coming up on a world that's easy now
Onе hundred years from, one hundred years from
[Verse: Hozier]
The martyrs of our revolution
Their spinning caused the earth to shake
The problem brought its own solution
They power now the world we've made
[Pre-Chorus: Hozier]
After all, darling, I wouldn't sell the world
For all the gold or sterling
If it falls, I would hold on for all it's worth
The future's so bright it's burning
[Chorus: Hozier]
Sun coming up on a dream come around
One hundred years from the empire now
Sun coming up on a world that's easy now
One hundred years from, one hundred years from
