It's simple and eternal
 The sum of where we're made
 Across the land we circle
 Inside is where we're raised
 As nations keep on marching
 As borders break and fall
 The guardian eye is watching
 The hawk who sees it all
 I know you're aching to move on
 It doesn't matter where you are when you belong

 Something close to love
 But more mysterious
 I'll hold you in the shadow of my arms
 Always close to love
 But more victorious
 Can you feel this empire being born
 The pull of where you're from is far too strong

" Imperium V " 

It's honest and it's [bad word]  There's beauty in its strength
 It's never less than [bad word]  It's born from innocence
 Break through the web that I have spun
 It doesn't matter where you are when I am gone

 Something close to love
 But more mysterious
 I'll hold you in the shadow of my arms
 Always close to love
 But more victorious
 Can you feel this empire being born
 The pull of where you're from is far too strong

 Always close to
 Always close to
 Always close to
 Always always

 Something close to love
 But more mysterious
 I'll hold you in the shadow of my arms
 Always close to love
 But more victorious
 Can you feel this empire being born
 The pull of where you're from is far too strong
