Description:
Tiptoe through our shiny city...

Stay out super late tonight
Picking apples, making pies
Put a little something in our lemonade and take it with us
We're half awake in a fake empire
We're half awake in a fake empire

Tiptoe through our shiny city
With our diamond slippers on
Do our gay ballet on ice, bluebirds on our shoulders
We're half awake in a fake empire
We're half awake in a fake empire

Turn the light, out say goodnight
No thinking for a little while
Let's not try to figure out everything at once
It's hard to keep track of you falling through the sky
We're half awake in a fake empire
We're half awake in a fake empire


Beautiful 'Fake Empire' Video by Scott Cudmore, 2008.

    For a moment I thought the group picture was King Cnut from Thom Yorke's Eraser album.

    I can't stop listening to this song, particularly the live version. Beautiful lyrics and instruments. There's something sort of fragile about it.
