Empty Space

A drop of life for every two days
A flood of tears to keep me awake

The air feels heavy, the heart feels hollow
No one left to follow

I whisper a word, a fleeting flame
A spark of hope in a world full of shame

What’s left behind?
(What’s left is pain!) an empty void
A fragile love (a frozen love!), a life destroyed
What still remains? (Nothing remains!) no soft embrace
Just silence hanging in this empty space

This empty space!

The drought outside, it’s right within
An insane world, where hope grows thin

Broken ties, like sand they slip
Searching for a meaning, but losing grip
Broken love, tied hands, they get sick
Keeping an eye out for losing grip

I scream in pain, I scream your name
A kind of anger, more of the same

What’s left behind?
(What’s left is pain!) an empty void
A fragile love (a frozen love!), a life destroyed
What still remains? (Nothing remains!) no soft embrace
Just silence echoing, this empty space

This empty space!
