Lyrics Empire Of One - Jawbox

Empire Of One

Lackluster hero
Go back to zero
Empire of one (Empire of one)
The subjects are gone (Misfortunate son)
Meager returns (Seated and burns)
On a king’s star-time charm (On a brown tar time-bomb)
Doffs the crown (Bitter tonic)
To stagger home (Tight like a tourniquet)
Drunk on the obvious (Sings like a salesman)
Empire of one (Empire of one)
Misfortunate son (The suspects are gone)
Auto-hypnotic lecture short-circuit (Auto-hypnotic lecture short-circuit)
Condition chronic (Dons the crown to swagger alone)
Tight like a tourniquet (Drunk on the obvious)
Sings like a salesman
Lackluster hero
Go back to zero
Trying to talk to (Past mouth and through you)
Past mouth and through you (talk through to you)
Lackluster hero
Go back to zero
