Staircase - New Empire

Late at night it's kind

Of early for making promises

But I'll try to keep them all

So when it's hard

And when it's easier

And when it's adventurous

I just need to know you know

You know

I was standing at the staircase

Staring into space

I thought I had it all

Just try to do it your way

You'll make a lot of friends

You'll make a lot of foes

On your own it can be

Easier to do things for a while

But these traps

Don't catch their own

So with all this distraction

And with all of my empty words

I will give you all

Of my soldier's hearts

I was standing at the staircase

Staring into space

I thought I had it all

Just try to do it your way

You'll make a lot of friends

You'll make a lot of foes

Standing at the staircase

Staring into space

I thought I had it

So I'll climb a little higher

And I'll reach

A little closer to you

I'll step a little higher

'Cause you said it's not over

I was standing at the staircase

Staring into space

I thought I had it all

Just try to do it your way

You'll make a lot of friends

You'll make a lot of foes

Now I'm standing

At the staircase

Staring into space

I thought I had it all

Just try to do it your way

I've made a lot of friends

I've made a lot of foes
