Heaven

heres the real lyrics

I will run the streets and hostile lands I will touch the rain with all I have I will breathe the air, just scream it loud My feet will never touch the ground Because the days they feel like ancient clocks Like when kids grow up and learn to walk Because your life is full of pure desire A place so gloriously wired

The lights and sounds Oh God this is such a mess And it's like our world But we're the last ones left And the hair it stands On the back of our necks And I swear it shows Heaven must be just like this

Do you see the hills beneath the clouds? The stars and its to lead you out Can you sense the pain? It's everywhere And if you try you'll never care And the love you had When you were young Is right outside for all to come Because your life is full of pure desire A life so gloriously wired

The lights and sounds Oh God this is such a mess And it's like our world But we're the last ones left And the hair it stands On the back of our necks And I swear it shows Heaven must be just like this

If you see the light break through the clouds And fire up the distant towns Now the world will be begin Exactly how it ends When you call for help when you are lost For evermore or what ever it costs And the world will begin Exactly how it ends

Please stay Don't go I've got you now Are you curious? Please stay

this song isn't one of my favoritesss on the new cd. but it's still really good. the instrumental build up is one of their best ones.

EPIC

I love how you can hear "The Adventure" at the beginning of this song and at the very end you can hear the beginning of "Valkyrie Missile"

such an amazing song, very uplifting.

delvec, not only can you hear the adventure in the beginning, but you hear excerpts from "valkryie missile" and "start the machine".

i just love how this song starts out using bits from "the adventure" "valkyrie missile" and "start the machine". this is the perfect song to end the great album that I-Empire truly is.

Acoustic Songs: http://www.mediafire.com/?8mnw4xpgznw

The acoustic songs are in this order:

The Gift

It Hurts (Live not acoustic)

Good Day

Everythings Magic

The Adventure

All of those listed above are acoustic Except for It Hurts, which is live and is REALLY loud.

Those drum beats at the start sound like the very start of dont leave me by Blink 182. I Empire is a brilliant album, it seems like tom gave us more of an insight to his personal life for this cd, especially on "Rite of Spring"

I've heard some people say that "Heaven" is such an amazing, uplifting song. it is a great song, I have to say. but for some reason, it seems really sad and upsetting. maybe I'm just in a bad mood or maybe I'm interpreting the song the wrong way...

this line here : "My feet will never touch the ground Because the days they feel like ancient clocks" seems like he is in Heaven... with the feeling of weightlessness and the time not being a factor in life. and then he goes on to explain how the lights and sounds and isolation is affecting him... and that's when he says "I swear it shows Heaven must be just like this" which leads me to the idea that he thinks Heaven won't be such a pleasant place.

then, he says: "Do you see the hills beneath the clouds? The stars and trails to lead you out Can you sense the pain? It's everywhere" I think he's saying that there's a way out somewhere.. of escaping death (possibly?), but this can't be found... which explains the pain everywhere.

what I'm confused on is the part where he says : "Now the world will be begin.... Exactly how it ends" is this in darkness?

what sort of messes up my theory is when Tom sings "are you curious?, please stay. don't go, I've got you now"

"I will run the streets and hostile lands I will touch the rain with all I have I will breathe the air, just scream it loud My feet will never touch the ground Because the days they feel like ancient clocks Like when kids grow up and learn to walk"

I believe that this talks about the feeling of innocence and no regrets...almost like as if you were a child again.

"The lights and sounds Oh God this is such a mess And it's like our world But we're the last ones left And the hair it stands On the back of our necks And I swear it shows Heaven must be just like this"

Almost touches on the subject of the rapture, and how the world will be peaceful right after the rapture happens.

"Do you see the hills beneath the clouds? The stars and its to lead you out Can you sense the pain? It's everywhere And if you try you'll never care And the love you had When you were young Is right outside for all to come"

This also kinda touches on the rapture, where the world goes into turmoil while everyone up high is watching carelessly upon what is happening down below.

"If you see the light break through the clouds And fire up the distant towns Now the world will be begin Exactly how it ends"

Apocalypse or something similar. Perhaps Sodom and Gomorrah?
