I Am The Empire

What year is it? How many years has it been?  Where am I? Why am I here?  Why am I poking this dead animal?  Some part of me doesn't care..... here it goes:

I Am The Empire
I am the empire 
I am the war machine
I am the beauty passing
By you unseen
I am the emptiness that
Comes after and before
I am the steps it takes to
Walk through that open door

Cause the best place to find the truth
Is right in front of you

You are the empire 
You are the war machine
You are the notes that capture
The essence of my melody 
You are the ugliness of
This world we're born into
You are the beauty of all the
Things that surround you


Cause the best place to find the truth
Is right in front of you

We are the empire
We are the war machine
We are the love that passes 
Between you and me 
We are the poetry that
We speak unrehearsed
We are the silent truth of
This infinite universe


Cause the best place to find the truth
Is right in front of you
