The Emptiness

They say my world isn't over
While they sit and witness life
An older dream that I once worshiped
Is now the ash upon the ground

You tell these lies to me
With hopes that I could see
But nothing changes cause I've seen it all
Erratic lucid dreams
Of what it used to be
When everything was safe before the fall

They say things will get better
While they laugh and celebrate
The only pain that they witnessed
Was in passing and their empathy

You carry hope for me
But no one ever sees
The emptiness that comes maliciously
Unending lunacy
Is taking over me
Corrupting me and all I see

I feel the pain behind my eyes
Pressure so intense, from saying our goodbyes
I can't fight this feeling, love and pain collide
A victim of the emptiness growing deep inside

You tell these lies to me
With hopes that I could see
But nothing changes cause I've seen it all
Erratic lucid dreams
Of what it used to be
When everything was safe before the fall

I feel the pain behind my eyes
Pressure so intense, from saying our goodbyes
I can't fight this feeling, love and pain collide
A victim of the emptiness growing deep inside
