Empty

Empty written and performed by Daniel Ball Jr.

Lyrics:

irrelevant the comfort it brings
transient at best
you tell your self every time
you open up your eyes

look away from the mirror, fear your
bridge from sight to mind
hear the voice inside, "i hate you, hate you...
...hate you all the time"

did i fail
to tell you
i'm always by your side?
and you talk
to strangers
with hopes they make you 'right'
and i will be
walking up to talk you off your ledge

day to night to night to day
this never seems to change
this violence aimed at me
is necessary

your presence right here now points
to the thought you might know too
i can't trust myself
i'm empty
empty, empty, empty...

empty from the truth

did i fail
to tell you
i'm always by your side?
and you talk
to strangers
with hopes they make you 'right'
and i will be
walking up to talk you off your ledge

words and stares are knives and i am
cut beyond repair this time
promise me that you will take this seriously
