## Lyrics

**Fallon:**

How can I just let you walk away

Just let you leave without a trace

When I stand here taking every breath

With you, ooh ooh

You're the only one who really knew me at all

How can you just walk away from me

When all I can do is watch you leave

Cause we've shared the laughter and the pain

And even shared the tears

You're the only one who really knew me at all

So take a look at me now

Oh, there's just an empty space

And there's nothing left here to remind me

Just the memory of your face

Take a look at me now

Well there's just an empty space

And you coming back to me is against the odds

But that's what I've got to face

I wish I could just make you turn around

Turn around and see me cry

There's so much I need to say to you

So many reasons why

You're the only one who really knew me at all

So take a look at me now

There's just an empty space

And there's nothing left here [...]

Femperial Publishing

Fallon to Stuart

**Femperial Publishing** (formerly **Elcott Publishing**) is a publishing company owned by Fallon Unlimited. Fallon Carrington originally acquired the company through the acquisition of NTNR, and later sold the company to Kirby, who in turn, sold it to a synergy group, however it's later revealed that at some point Fallon bought the company back.

## History

### Season 2

Elcott Publishing was owned by NTNR, however, when Fallon Carrington bought the company she became the new owner of a publishing company and renamed it Femperial Publishing. ("Miserably Ungrateful Men")

Fallon later sold the company to Kirby for one-dollar, under the deal that Kirby would sell the company back. However, Kirby slighted Fallon and chose to keep the company as her own. ("Deception, Jealousy, and Lies")

### Season 3

Fallon offered to buy Femperial back from Kirby for two-million dollars, which Kirby rejected instantly. Fallon then vacated Femperial from their office as she owned the building they were occupying. Kirby realized that she wasn't capable of running the company herself but still wanted to own it. She began actively searching for a new CEO, however, her efforts were thwarted by Fallon who made her look like a drunk in front of potential CEOs. ("Mother? I'm at La Mirage")

Fallon later decided to invest in NTNR and renamed it Fallon Unlimited, her next business venture after Femperial. ("A Used Up Memory")

Kirby sold Femperial and transferred the funds into her personal bank account. ("What Sorrows Are You Drowning?")

Everybody Wants to Rule the World

**Everybody Wants to Rule the World**is a song performed by Blake Carrington and Adam Carrington, as hallucinated by Fallon Carrington while suffering from exposure to a gas leak in her room. It was originally written for and performed by the English pop rock band Tears for Fears in 1985.

The musical number takes place in the Carrington Manor living room after a fight between Fallon and Adam, and generally underscores the power struggle over the Blue Belt Winery. The song is sung by Blake and played on the piano by Adam in the first verse, but is sung in unison in the second verse, accompanied by background music from an unseen source.

Upon the performance's end, Fallon is taken aback at their sporadic musical number and interjects that they were pitchy on the second verse. However, neither of them know what she is referring to, and Blake asks her if she is feeling okay, at which point Fallon realizes that the performance was a hallucination.

## Trivia

* This is the first of four songs to be sung in "Something Desperate."
* This song is featured in the first official musical episode of the series.
* The original version of the song was used in the season one episode, "Company Slut."
* After its performance, the song is heard several times throughout the third season as background music.

## Lyrics

**Blake:**

Welcome to your life

There's no turning back

Even while we sleep

We will find You acting on your best behavior

Turn your back on mother nature

**Adam:**

Everybody wants to rule the world

**Adam:**

It's my own design

It's my own remorse

Help me to decide

Help me make the most Of freedom and of pleasure

Nothing ever lasts forever

**Blake:**

Everybody wants to rule the world

**Blake and Adam:**

There's a room where the light won't find you

Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down

When they do, I'll be right behind you

So glad we've almost made it

So sad they had to fade it

Everybody wants to rule the world

## Lyrics

**Fallon:**

And you're probably with that blonde girl

Who always made me doubt

She's so much older than me

She's everything I'm insecure about

Yeah, today I drove through the suburbs

'Cause how could I ever love someone else?

And I know we weren't perfect

But I've never felt this way for no one

And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay now that I'm gone

Guess you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me

'Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street
