Empty Hands and Empty Hearts

by SMILEoften   Jul 4, 2008


This is a song dedicated to my boyfriend. well, ex-boyfriend :(

It might not sound like it flows, but it does in the song. I hope you like it.

sitting here alone in this empty world you
left me in
tell me: is this how you want to live?
with lies, with betrayal and this dirty, used ground?..
that is part of me now.
I guess it's my life too
because

what's mine is yours & what's yours is mine
when you handed me your empty heart
I guess there was nothing left to find ..
but me, oh optimistic me
just needed a little more

it's all experience under my belt,
but is that how i felt when you
really cared and was really scared
of the emotions that I'm feeling now?
As spit up on the cold pavement,
I don't need you now.
need to get real now.

what's mine was yours & yours was mine
but in this world you and I call home
all that's given is empty hearts & nothing more to find
but you, oh optimistic you
tried.

in this black room I just need out
love isn't an option now
my eyes are closed and all I see
is sadness and anger and games...
is it how we're meant to be?
please don't offer me the key
I don't want inside anymore.

what's mine doesn't belong to you & I don't want whats yours
finally found a way to get out of this place.
my empty heart needs it's space
& a chance to be filled up again.
oh you, oh beautiful you,
I love you to the core.
but I don't need you
anymore.
