Empty Box

 

 

 

I see you standing there looking for someone like me

Someone to see past all your smiles,

 

Under the water fade in me let all your dreams

Fill you; cover your broken heart…………child. Cover your empty box; paint a picture child, over your broken heart child

 

Did everyone forgot how to feel, can you really say you know what’s real

 

Are you looking for someone to take you home, to take you home, its 4 am and the bar’s are all closed, no more alcohol, trying to fill the holes trying to fill the holes

 

Fade into me, let all these dreams,

Let all these things flow through, let me see what’s under your face, let me dig under those eye’s you cant cover your broken heart

 

Paint your pretty pictures over your eyes, over your empty box, child, are you looking for someone to take you home,

 

Come and fade into me

Fade through everything you can’t believe

 

 

I thought I forgot, what it was like to breathe you in

To feel intensity, to watch your lips bleed

Within and throughout me

To breathe you in, to breathe you in,

To feel this intensity, tearing down all the lies I believe

Within and throughout me
