Song lyrics
If I had my own world, 
I’d build you an empire. 

If I had my own world, 
I’d fill it with wealth and desire. 
A glorious past to admire, 
And voices of kids out walking dogs, birds, planes, cleanest cars. 

If I had my own world, 
I’d love it for all that’s inside it. 
There’d be no more wars, death or riots. 
There’d be no more police, packed-parking lots, guns, bombs sounding off. 

If I had my own world, 
I’d build you an empire. 
From here to the far lands, 
To spread love like violence. (x2) 

Let me feel you, carry you higher. 
Watch your words spread hope like fires. 
Secret crowds rise up and gather. 
Hear your voices sing back louder. 

If I had my own world, 
I’d show you the life that’s inside it. 
The way that it glows when you find it. 
And the way it survives with its families, friends or its enemies. 

Let’s make this a new world. 
I swear you can go if you want to. 
I know that you have that within you. 
Inventing the first clean and useable, gods greatest miracle. 

If I had my own world, 
I’d build you an empire. 
From here to the far lands, 
To spread love like violence. (x2) 

Let me feel you, carry you higher. 
Watch your words spread hope like fires. 
Secret crowds rise up and gather. 
Hear your voices sing back louder. (x4)

Definitely one of my favorites off of the new album.. I'm big on the way the instruments in a song sound and in this song especially, they focus a lot on the drums which I love. My favorite part is in the second chorus, around 3 minutes and 30 seconds when it's just Tom singing with the drums, I love it!

Great song!! All the other ones do not sound the same either?! I think this song sounds abit like Always by Blink at the lyric
'Let me heal you, carry you higher,
Watch our words spread hope like fire'

Amazing.

i think this soung show's how tom has matured and changed as an artist. if you truely read into the lyircs and pay attention you can tell he has become more religious in his music. it's not conventional but there are plenty of references. some don't view it as religious cause of his past but the words are there. "if i had my own world i'd build you an empire from here to the far lands to spread love like violence" saying he would make it for God. Secret Crowds, the title, being the masses of people forming up to praise and love him. being in secret due to the corruption of the world today. Really a great album. good music. great stories behind them if you can actually read into them.
