You are conflating empirical with analytical truth.

 The distinction is not that clear. How do whe know what is the right
way to identify an analytical truth? Why do we consider certain ways
right and other wrong? Why do we apply the word "truth" to both
empirical and analitical truth?
 

Any expression that can be verified as completely true entirely
on the basis of the meaning of its words is analytically true.
