Lyrics
EMPTY
c2004, Halie Loren
Stick it through
Suck it in
Chew it up
Spit it out
That's a good girl
Don't you give up now
You won't be okay
`Til you're inside out
and
Empty
Empty
Empty
Isn't that what you wanted?
Shove away
Lock it out
Eat the air
Fill your mouth
Who really needs a soul
When Heaven's right now
In these skinny jeans
Making your god so proud
you're
Empty
Empty
Empty
Isn't that what you wanted?
Little seed. now an ugly tree
Watered by.the self-hate you feed upon
Darkened eyes-silent cry
Slowly die-in you mind
In your mind
In your mind
As you Empty.
Empty
Empty
Empty
Isn't that... isn't that, oh, isn't that...
Isn't that what you wanted?
