Although I’m surrounded by many
There’s on phrase describing me:
Empty Handed Heavy Hearted
I am alone.
And if this feeling deep inside of me will last
I will forever cling onto my past.
Spending my days alone and cold.
What we went through and the stories we told.
The distance between us feels like a cure And is saving me from my apathy.
But staying away is killing me.
Love was always a promise that the world gave to me.
Yett right now I’d rather choose my own demise
Instead of proving empty pledges.
Loneliness, emptiness.
My thoughts are drifting like a ship
Never supposed to find its way back home.
Although we’re surrounded by many
There is on phrase describing us:
Empty Handed Heavy Hearted
We are alone.
