Empty Years
It’s been a long time coming
I can breathe but it doesn’t mean that I’m alive
my sleepless soul still carries through the night
the burden of all the mistakes
the lies I’ve told so I won’t be afraid of death
be afraid of who I am
and I close my eyes, hope you will sing those words with me
like it used to be, it used to be
and the light at the end seems so bright
will you be there when I come out?
I spent too many empty years
looking for an answer to why I’ve lost the fire
I’ve traded my soul
for a life without pain
I ended up with an hollow heart
I swear I won’t come back here again
one day I will leave this shallow grave
burn the bridge between here and there
my disappointment is all I have to give
someday this will be part of my history
the burden of all the mistakes
the lies I’ve told so I won’t be afraid of death
be afraid of who I am
and I close my eyes, hope you will sing those words with me
like it used to be, it used to be
broken bones and bloody nose
will I ever be the same?
is there a place in the deep of your heart
where you can hide me from the worst time of my life

we've been waiting for something to change
waiting for a turnaround in fate
and don't ever let go
live your dreams and stay awake
the past has nothing left to say to you
don't ever let go
No denial, we are not afraid of change
tomorrow will be better day
get up and scream your lungs out
The future is a blank page, make the best of it
don't ever let go
bring out the noise, make it loud
let's hear your voice
it's time to come around
don't ever let go
we'll break your lies apart
We'll fight our way around
we’ll sing our hearts out for the world to know
with no shame
Until the world's end
we’ll scream our lungs out for the world to know

this little place
where I can find a piece of mind
where my anxiety meets my self esteem
I run away from the demons in my head
the quiet words you whispers in my ears
as the cold morning wakes up my pain
the world seems such a better place
when you keep telling lies
as the fire in my lungs
keeps burning bright
why can’t I move along
I’ve waited long enough
for the world to turn around
keep me up, bring me down
I’ve had enough of waiting for the next storm
the shiny lights in your bedroom
the broken stained glass on the floor
keep me up, bring me down
I’ve had enough of waiting for your next storm
there’s a place
where I feel safe and not contemp
where I can drown myself, for a day or two
I stayed away from the happiness I’ve longed
the loud noises coming from my mouth
as the heat of the night kills out my pain
