Lyrics
Empty
Song by Shayna Wray & Ian Mackenzie Davis
INTRO
VERSE 1
True Love, the most beautiful thing
Soaring high, on the most beautiful wings
What went wrong with today?
What went wrong yesterday?
All I want is this void to go away
Yeah I want to cry
But I don't know why
Jumping off the edge
I bash my head
And kneel before my bed
A prayer comes out of me
Hoping you will see
I'm not the things you say I am
I wish that you would give a damn
CHORUS
I'm so empty
You took my heart you took my soul
I'm empty
You left me in an empty hole
So empty
I wish this void would go away
So empty
Nothing left for me to say
VERSE 2
In my room, I pick myself apart
How can I be in love with a broken heart?
And when I go outside, I still live this lie
A masque of anger fights my tears and my will to cry
I wish my heart was numb
I wish my life was done
Then maybe I would see
The light of day, and you would go away
I wish the roles would change
So I could rearrange
Then you would be the worthless one
Betrayed by me and everyone
CHORUS
I'm so empty
You took my heart you took my soul
I'm empty
You left me in an empty hole
So empty
I wish this void would go away
So empty
Nothing left for me to say
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK
BREAKDOWN
True Love, the most beautiful thing
Soaring high, on the most beautiful wings
What went wrong with today?
What went wrong yesterday?
All I want is the void to go away
I'm not the things you say I am
CHORUS REPEAT WITH VARIATION
END
