The emptiness in everything haunts all I do
Truth behind the silence makes it hard to breathe
Fall before the morning leaves me on the floor
The goodbyes are all I hear and see
It scares me you moved on so fast
Dark beneath the hum of day
Light within has become so very small
Voice that I long for has nothing to say
And broken heart continues beating
Afraid how that can be
Scars I wear inside and out
Pain I wish would set me free

The emptiness in everything haunts all I do
Truth behind the silence makes it hard to breathe
Fall before the morning leaves me on the floor
The goodbyes are all I hear and see
It scares me you moved on so fast
Dark beneath the hum of day
Light within has become so very small
Voice that I long for has nothing to say
And broken heart continues beating
Afraid how that can be
Scars I wear inside and out
Pain I wish would set me free
But instead it holds me captive
