In fire and in thistles
She faced down their control
They sold guided missiles
To misguided souls

They told lies in mistrials
They sided with gold
With Defiance and with smiles
She faced down their control

Empress in Exile
Her Highness
In duress
Empress in Exile

For the love
For the love of money

For the love
For the love of money

Hold on when all of the lights are gone
When all of the fights rage on
A call in the night - what’s wrong, what’s wrong
Hold on - the sound of a distant song
Resounds from the desperate throng
Eyes fixed to the east how long how long
Hold on - fires from the rising sun
Just under the horizon
Awaken the dawn - hold on - hold on
The love of power eclipsed by the power of love
Rips open in the skies above
Eyes fixed to the east my love, my love
