Exile (The Empress Returns)

There was a time
When I let you tell me
That what I was was wrong.

That was a time
When I didn't know me
That deep inside I could be strong.

And so I went into the abyss
Away from the world
To walk a new path.

I found freedom in the unknown
Carving something to call my own
In the night sky the stars above
Showed me a new way and I'm not alone.

I used to think change was impossible
That I couldn't leave and come back
And now I have made it all possible
Now I'll take you out because I'm back.

And now is the time
When I get to tell you
That what you are is wrong.

And now is my time
When I can control me
And now I can stand and be strong.

And now I've returned
The second coming
A new vision
I've found a force within.

It must feel different now that I've shown
That I'll take you down on my own.

I used to think change was impossible
That I couldn't leave arid come back
And now I have made it all possible
Now I'll take you out 'cause I'm back.
