Lyrics

Empty

[Verse 1]

I find my troubles wait 'til I’m home

Nothing to distract me when daylight is gone

[Pre-Chorus]

It's been months, it's been months

I’ve been counting the days

Just for once, just for once

Give me something to chase

I can run, I can run

But I can't keep the pace

Where were you on my darkest day?

[Chorus]

I hold my breath so that you can breathe

Used to stand with me, I'm running on empty

Now I gave my sight so that you could see

That I'm running on empty

[Verse 2]

We both thought it best we take time on our own

Maybe I just need rest, I don't sleep well alone

[Pre-Chorus]

I just toss and I turn

All I see is your face

We just slash and we burn

To get back to that place

I can run, I can run

But I can't keep thе pace

Where wеre you on my darkest day?

[Chorus]

I hold my breath just so you can breathe

Used to stand with me, I'm running on empty

Now I gave my sight so that you could see

That I'm running on empty

[Bridge]

It’s been months

Just for once

Give me something to chase

Just for once

Where were you on my darkest day?

[Chorus]

I hold my breath just so you can breathe

Used to stand with me, I’m running on empty

Now I gave my sight so that you could see

Used to stand with me, I'm running on empty
