Blood Empress
[Intro]
I'm not a human
Not a machine
I've lost myself but gained all I need
I've crawled my way out on shattered knees
I've built an empire, rose from the fall
With blood and oil I will rule them all
[Verse 1]
I'll stand before my people, fresh out of the fight
I've taken every step to put wrongs to right
And though at times I may have lost sight of the way
With no one there to stop me, I came to slay
[Pre-Chorus]
Wind me up, let me loose
Tie the knot, hang the noose
[Chorus]
Rathеr die for tomorrow
Than live for today
Be thе empress of nothing
Never serve again
Rather die for tomorrow
Than live for today
Never asked for the power
Anyway
[Verse 2]
I've sacrificed my freedom, unfettered you all
And yet I got no reason for feeling small
[Bridge]
I'm not a human
I'm not a human
I'm not a human
I'm not a human
[Pre-Chorus]
Wind me up, let me loose
Tie the knot, hang the noose
All I've got left are dark thoughts inside of my mind
[Chorus]
Rather die for tomorrow
Than live for today
Be the empress of nothing
Never serve again
Rather die for tomorrow
Than live for today
Never asked for the power
Anyway
I'm not a human
Not a machine
I've lost myself but gained all I need
I've crawled my way out on shattered knees
I've built an empire, rose from the fall
With blood and oil I will rule them all
[Verse 1]
I'll stand before my people, fresh out of the fight
I've taken every step to put wrongs to right
And though at times I may have lost sight of the way
With no one there to stop me, I came to slay
[Pre-Chorus]
Wind me up, let me loose
Tie the knot, hang the noose
[Chorus]
Rathеr die for tomorrow
Than live for today
Be thе empress of nothing
Never serve again
Rather die for tomorrow
Than live for today
Never asked for the power
Anyway
[Verse 2]
I've sacrificed my freedom, unfettered you all
And yet I got no reason for feeling small
[Bridge]
I'm not a human
I'm not a human
I'm not a human
I'm not a human
[Pre-Chorus]
Wind me up, let me loose
Tie the knot, hang the noose
All I've got left are dark thoughts inside of my mind
[Chorus]
Rather die for tomorrow
Than live for today
Be the empress of nothing
Never serve again
Rather die for tomorrow
Than live for today
Never asked for the power
Anyway
