Feel So Empty

[Verse 1]

You're eating soup with a fork, wanna talk

But the speed of sound seems so much faster than before

I wanna scream, "It's not your fault!"

But to frequent doubt, screams are no plaster of that, I'm sure

You said you wanna stop blaming your parents

'Cause they, too, are just products of how they were raised

And you wanna stop blaming yourself

It doesn't help, this idea of blame

And you scream

[Chorus]

How am I overflowing when I feel so empty?

How am I overflowing when I feel so empty?

I gently took your hand

We began to dance

Whilst crying aplenty

How am I overflowing when I feel so empty?

[Verse 2]

You said you're having onе of those days

Where you wish you didn't havе a body

But my pupils reached out to what they see as starlit

You said once upon a time

You were some sort of two-ended candle

But somewhere along the line you became melted wax on the carpet

It's in the stillness we feel, we hear vibrations

Now, silent air

[Chorus]

How am I overflowing when I feel so empty?

Oh, how am I overflowing when I feel so empty?

I gently took your hand

We began to dance

Whilst crying aplenty

How am I overflowing when I feel so empty?

[Bridge]

And as we continue to live

We continue to die

But become formless waves, roll freely

Over the steady tide

Took the bus into town looking out at windows

As we drive past

Think of the endless infinities

Tucked behind each glass

(Have they all screamed?)

(Have they all screamed?)

[Chorus]

How am I overflowing when I feel so empty?

Oh, how am I overflowing when I feel so empty?

I gently took your hand

We began to dance

Whilst crying aplenty

How am I overflowing when I feel so empty?
