Empty As I Am

It's not like I don't feel love The taste of it's warmest touch It's not like I lose sleep It's like I don't sleep at all It's not like I don't hurt like you The closer I get, I lose It's not like you don't know love It's like you don't know the cost How long til my heart breaks So much that I can take One more day, one more hour Of waiting on something that might never happen How long til my tears stop How every salted drop Bruises the skin, I'm stuck in betrayal Empty as I am It's not like I don't want to hold Every part of you whole It's not like I can't walk up to you It's just that I wouldn't know what to do The smell of you runs Right through my veins Thoughts of you linger How I betray My broken heart, my stubborn fist How did our story End up like this? How long til my heart breaks So much that I can take One more day, one more hour Of waiting on something, that might never happen How long til my tears stop How every salted drop Bruises the skin, I'm stuck in betrayal Empty as I am I see you there Just out of reach Whisper your name Cuz if I scream I might wake up You might just be Only a dream And if you don't love me How long til my heart breaks So much that I can take One more day, one more hour Of waiting on something that's not gonna happen How long til my tears stop How every salted drop Bruises the skin, I'm stuck in betrayal Empty as I am
