Lyrics Emperor of Nowhere - Kate Havnevik

Your mystery
The ebb and flow of misery

How much darkness
Is needed to see the stars?
How much harm must
I feel to heal your scars?

You're the author of this nightmare
You're the engineer of our distress
Ooh, you're the Emperor of Nowhere
And no one gets out alive
No one gets out alive from here

These wings are drenched
From ambivalence, a slow descent

How much darkness
Is needed to see the stars?
How much harm must
I feel to heal your scars?

You're the author of this nightmare
You're the engineer of our distress
Oh, you're the Emperor of Nowhere
And no one gets out alive
No one gets out alive from here

What can't endure
Can't be cured
Will surely end

You're the author of this nightmare
You're the engineer of our distress
Ooh, you're the Emperor of Nowhere
And no one gets out alive
No one gets out alive

And no one gets out alive
No one gets out alive
And no one gets out alive
No one gets out alive from here
