Escape The Fate - Empire Lyrics






Yeah-eheh-eheh
Yeah-eheh-eheh
Yeah-eheh-eheh

One more time doing one more line
One more shot till we all ignite
Spend all of my money and more

It's blurry in the moonlight
I'll never see the sunrise
I'll drink until I go blind
Drink until I go blind

I set my friends on fire
And now they're all lit up
Welcome to my empire
Where everybody's fucked up

Cheers to the top
Cheers to the middle
Cheers to us all
Getting a little, yeah

All these girls seem to know my name
I'm too fucked up to care anyway
Breaking hearts and bottles everywhere

Bartender bring another round
There's no sign of us slowing down
Both my middle fingers in the air

It's blurry in the moonlight
I'll never see the sunrise
I'll drink until I go blind
Drink until I go blind

I set my friends on fire
And now they're all lit up
Welcome to my empire
Where everybody's fucked up

Cheers to the top
Cheers to the middle
Cheers to us all
Getting a little, yeah

Yeah-eheh-eheh
Yeah-eheh-eheh
Yeah-eheh-eheh

Yeah-eheh-eheh
Yeah-eheh-eheh
Yeah-eheh-eheh
Yeah-eheh-eheh

I set my friends on fire
And now they're all lit up
Welcome to my empire
Where everybody's fucked up

Cheers to the top
Cheers to the middle
Cheers to us all
Getting a little, yeah

Cheers to the top
Cheers to the middle
Cheers to us all
Getting a little, yeah

  1. M.... ....

    i dont care coz im fucked up!

  2. R.... A....

    Why would this song be nothing like ETF when it sounds like City of Sin, and, no, I am NOT insulting that song from the TWIO, self titled, and Ungrateful era. You guys gotta get over it already right now and enter the Hate Me and I Am Human era. Escape the Fate 4 FUKIN' LIFE! Seriously, though, start a new tag in the ETF fan base: #EscapeTheFate4FUKINLIFE

  3. W.... 4....

    Peace, freedom, justice and security.

  4. R.... R....

    Lol. Holy shit. Quit it. Just give up now.

  5. J.... G....

    My first experience with ETF was with their song You Make Me Sick and that was over 11 years ago. These guy's keep hitting the sweet spot now I'm stuck on Breaking Me Down, I Am Human, and now Emire.

  6. b.... .....

    This song isn't on spotify :'c

  7. V.... B....

    Aaand Hollywood Undead is still the only band I know that can get away with making good party music...

  21. P.... N....

    I don't get why everyone dislikes it and thinks ETF is dead. Like this song is badass, yeah maybe it's a different sound, but a band has to adapt. I love it honestly

  22. I.... A....

    This song is so good live 😭

  23. T.... D....

    This song was by far my favorite that they played live!!

    T.... D....

  24. J.... B....

    I listened to this when this came out and didn't like it at all. then I came back ....wtf this is a party jam!

  25. W.... I....

    What a fukin stupid song by a lyricist with nothing intelligent to say
    Craig should study DAVEY HAVOK....

  26. M.... W....

    We're these lyrics written by some fifteen year old's in a band that barely started learning to play instruments? Absolute trash.

  27. S.... P....

    Sounds soo much Realllllll!!

  28. J.... D....

    I FUCKING LOVE THIS KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK GUYS! 😍❤😘😊

  29. C.... H....

  31. M.... E....

    HATERS GO TO HELL. 😂

  32. D.... S....

    why do I get this weird Linkin Park vibe from this lol, not thats its bad, but so different from what they used to do :D

  33. T.... B....

    SCREEEEE

  34. R.... ....

    I'm so confused. This song sounds great but the comments are really what I was not expecting.

  35. A.... P....

    Good song but a bit generic though. That's what happens when you kick out most of the talent of the band. Look what happened too John 5 and Marylin Manson. He was never the same. Believe it or not guitarist are a critical part of the sound of a band. Man I miss Monte, where are the squeals and the complex guitar riffs. I Like this song but nothing can compare to the amazing guitar riffs I was used to from ETF.

  36. t.... ....

    My kind of song for disowning friends. This song sounds like it should be in a wwe game or something.

  37. W.... ....

    It was okay but ETF could have done better still like the album tho

  38. B.... H....

    When he said " And cheers to us all getting a little", I had missheard that and I thought he said " And we're fucking the little", lmao im dying 😂

  39. j.... �....

    Shadowhunters season 3

  40. Y.... b....

    i saw so much comments saying that this song isn't good that i felt like i had to say i really like this song
    Come on guys ! this doesn't look like their other songs but that a good song anyways ! (plus a song can't be bad nor it can be good i'm just saying it's not a "shitty" song)

  41. X.... H....

    This is good but they should just stick to normal

  42. D.... ....

    "I'm too fucked up to care anyway"

  43. e.... b....

    For me, this song is more about the real life of listener and ETF, than the feelings of them. Sometimes you need to chill out, empty your head, and fill it with alcohol. This song is just about how i feel in parties and like all their songs i relate. It's not deep, meaningful, but great still.

  44. C.... C....

    Am I the only one who likes empire?

  45. T.... ....

    Should not have been a single
    ...I jam to this song on the album though!!

  46. S.... K....

    Probably the only good song in their album.

  47. J.... ....

    Awesome song! Fuck the haters

  48. M.... M....

    I think it's a good song

  49. M.... A....

    Loved this song. It is AMAZING!!!!!!!

  50. p.... p....

    Im not into the whole screamo shit so i personally like this song alot, dunno why everyone is winging

  51. M.... M....

    It's my fave song of their new album. =)

  52. R.... T....

    Здравая тема!

  53. M.... T....

    Honestly this song is an acquired taste. If I imagine the lyrics are good, it becomes a banger, because the instrumentals are really fun to listen to.

  54. S.... ....

    Throwback to city of sin..

  55. w.... ....

    ETF really needs too read these comments when dedicated Fans are saying your album sucks you know something is wrong. This whole album was a sellout pop album to make money, there is no passion in the music I can't feel it, Go listen to ungrateful its way better.

    People making the excuse bands grow & change their style that is such bullshit this album was only to make money, & cater to the pop/ radio crowd!

  56. S.... B....

    This is fucking amazing

  57. A.... P....

    I like this, actually.

  58. C.... ....

    boooooooring..............

  59. C.... H....

    And screams

  60. R.... N....

    💜💜😍😍

  61. c.... ....

    Cannot get behind the song. wtf... But go check out my review of the whole album! https://youtu.be/gG6h9C-ijCo

  62. M.... ....

    Didn't like it the first time had mixed feelings but I like it the second time around.

  63. M.... C....

    I personally like how they explore and do new stuff all the time, excited for the new album!

  64. K.... S....

    This isnt bad like i really like it but it was better with ronnie in it

  65. D.... V....

    Holy fuck this grew on me

  66. k.... ....

    for those saying about what is better album just fack of guys they doing what they want just fucking go back to nickelback and cry lol

  67. l.... j....

    I don’t know why people are hating this song....it sounds pretty cool for me!

  68. A.... S....

    This song is absolute trash, an embarrassment to Escape The Fate.

  69. V.... M....

    Its different its pretty good not gonna lie

  70. L.... C....

    ESCAPE THE HORIZON, nothing more to say

  71. B.... S....

    There are only 2 types of people
    Who likes this song
    And who doesn't
    I'm the second one
    And I know that's pretty late xd

  72. A.... R....

    Always good to have a few simplistic songs on an album. This is just that. I actually dig the course, but dislike the verses.

  73. O.... ....

    сперва не понял, но после 3-4 раза прослушивания понял - как же это охуительно. просто новый уровень.

  74. s.... b....

    Wtf. Guys i loved your old music. This sounds like some washed up shit. Will always be a fan but you giys can so better than this. Lots of love. Just positive criticism.

  75. U.... ....

    this song sounds like just a filler

  76. U.... ....

    "Welcome to my empire where everybody's fucked up" :D

  77. v.... r....

    My weekend 🤔

  78. P.... ....

    Result of Madness. Lack of Understanding. Guess Whose Back.

  79. A.... C....

    I set my friends on fire
    And now they're all lit up
    Welcome to my empire
    Where everybody's fucked up

  80. H.... ....

    Hahah... Neat.

  81. J.... C....

    The last album "Hate Me" was the heaviest album yet. Now we go to the lightest album ever? Weird order of events. Can't help but notice how this video only has 432K views. I'm missing the old days of half screams and half cleans with sick guitar solos. When Craig first took over these guys were on fire. I'm not sure how I feel anymore. I'm not sure what genre I would even classify this as. "The Flood" Has 17M Views and "This War is Ours" has 4 main videos totaling 18M views.

    J.... C....

    Jordan Conradt no way dude, Ungrateful was their heaviest

  82. o.... ....

    I dig it

  83. S.... H....

    No matter if I like all the songs or like only 1 I'll still buy the album because I support my boys! They are growing and in this album have a few harder style songs coming out. But so far this is the only song that I've heard so far thats got a happy vibe.... This album is based off of heart break. Keep it up boys I'll always be a fan

  84. A.... ....

    Ronnie and Monte held all the talent this band had..Once both of them were gone, it was all even further downhill

  85. M.... ....

    I'm getting Dead Rabbit vibes with this song. Loving it

  86. F.... y....

    Ugh hate this song. Still stoked for this album though
    "Broken heart" "do you love me" "four letter word"
    And imo one of their best songs ever "I am human" are all really good. But I'm sensing there's gonna be a lack of screams on this record and have a rather poppy album with 1 or 2 "heavy" tracks which I'm okay with Ungrateful kind of had the same thing going for it and that's my favourite album by them. Really want that album cover for a chest tattoo

  87. L.... J....

    I think you found your type of music to make . And make more cds like this . IM LOVING VERY SINGLE YOU HAVE RELSEADED SO FAR.

  88. S.... S....

    It’s definitely a new style. But i love it!

  89. F.... D....

    I love this

  90. l.... ....

    Where are the motherfuckers who called ETF trash after the releasw of I am human and Do you love me? Anyway this is an Anthem song. I really liked it. Listening to while dancing in the Bathroom lol@

  91. J.... J....

    people these days don't give a fuck about lyrics this album (atleast the songs we know) and the previous (Hate Me) have probably the most positive ETF lyrics

  92. L.... S....

    Really different but i love it

  93. J.... D....

    Lip Gallagher OMG rly American Lip Gallagher

  94. G.... S....

    This is going to be their best album yet

  95. A.... F....

    If I can only drown n a pool of liquor! @

  96. Z.... 1....

    Ok..... back to ronnie I go

  97. G.... F....

    This song is pretty crappy compared to every one of their others songs. 'I set my friends on fire, so now they're all lit up' like that's one of the dumbest lines I have ever heard. All their songs are great, but this one just doesn't amount to the rest of them.

    G.... F....

    I'm sorry, but I go to rewatch this video because I'm trying to convince myself that this isn't a bad song but no, this is truly a piece of shit. This is why you don't smoke crack in the recording studio.

  98. M.... T....

    I had my head phones in and people were reading the lyrics bent over my shoulders on the plane then my Bluetooth head phones died it was so loud lmao

  99. H.... ....

    It's good until he says the lit up thingy..........

  100. T.... R....

    I'm really surprised, this band is getting better and better. Great job guys! 
    I can't wait to see them in Dublin.
