Lucretia My Reflection Lyrics - Alkaline Trio

I hear the roar of a big machine 

Two worlds and in between 

Hot metal and methedrine 

I hear empire down 

I hear empire down 

I hear the roar of a big machine 

Two worlds and in between 

Love lost, fire at will 

Dum-dum bullets and shoot to kill, I hear 

Dive, bombers, and 

Empire down 

Empire down

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

I hear the sons of the city and the dispossessed 

Get down, get undressed 

Get pretty but you and me, 

We got the kingdom, we got the key 

We got the empire, now as then 

We don't doubt, we don't take direction 

Lucretia, my reflection, dance the ghost with me... 

We look hard 

We look through 

We look hard to see for real 

Such things I hear, they don't make sense 

I don't see much evidence 

I don't feel 

I don't feel 

I don't feel

A long train held up page on page 

A hard reign held up by rage 

Once a railroad 

Now it's done... 

I hear the roar of a big machine 

Two worlds and in between 

Hot metal and methedrine 

I hear empire down... 

We got the empire, now as then 

We don't doubt, we don't take reflection 

Lucretia, my direction, dance the ghost with me...
