“The Emptiness is an idea that my co-vocalist and co-creator Dennis Lee and I have had since the days of recording our first EP, Try This With Your Eyes Closed. We’ve spent our career thus far basing our songs and lyrics on the works of some of our پسندیدہ authors and literature of the past (i.e. stories in Greek mythology, fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm) and some chosen contemporary screenwriting (i.e. Heroes, The Princess Bride). However, even back when we first started writing together, he and I always talked about writing our own story that we...

Two roads تقسیم, الگ کریں off from here,
and my life goes running in opposite directions.
Exaggerating the barrier between who I am,
and who I want to be.

I wanted to be that breath of fresh air,
When everything smelled so insincere.
But this taste still lingers in my mouth,
Deceit has ways of sticking around.
And I'm ready to disappear,
Vacation seems far(seems far) from here.

Note to self:
I miss آپ terribly.
This is what
we call a tragedy.
Come back to me,
Come back to me,
To me.

Note to self:
I miss آپ terribly.
This is what
we call a tragedy.
Come back to me,
back to me,
To me.

I can feel my mind
wandering...

Ah Come on!

I can't believe,
The drama that I'm in,
The flood is getting closer,
I don't think they know that I know how to swim,
You're feeling numb, from all that has become.
It leaves your gums, slips down your tongue,
and travels fast down towards your lungs.
All because I (leaving آپ behind)

I feel the pressure,
It's coming down on me,
It's turning me black and blue!
Oh whoa
You left me on the side of the road (side of the road!)
And now I've got no place to go,
You brought the flood!

I can't believe
The troubles that you've caused,
The pain is getting stronger
like an open wound without the gauze,
It's...

ارے there,
I know it's hard to feel like I don't care at all.
Where آپ are and how آپ feel.
With these lights off as these wheels
keep rolling on and on. (and on and on and on...)
Slow things down یا speed them up.
Not enough یا way too much. (and on and on and on...)
How are آپ when I'm gone?

[Chorus:]
And I can't make it on my own.
(And I can't make it on my own.)
Because my دل is in Ohio.
So cut my wrists and black my eyes.
(Cut my wrists and black my eyes)
So I can fall asleep tonight, یا die.
Because آپ kill me.
You know آپ do, آپ kill me well.
You like it too, and I can tell.
You never stop until...

Yeah!

And if your دل stops beating
I'll be here wondering
Did آپ get what آپ deserve?
The ending of your life
And if آپ get to heaven
I'll be here waiting, babe
Did آپ get what آپ deserve?
The end, and if your life won't wait
Then your دل can't take this

Have آپ heard the news that you're dead?
No one ever had much nice to say
I think they never liked آپ anyway
Oh take me from the hospital bed
Wouldn't it be grand? It ain't exactly what آپ planned.
And wouldn't it be great If we were dead?
Ohh dead.

Tongue-tied and oh so squeamish
You never fell in love
Did آپ get what آپ deserve?
The ending of...

Long پہلے
Just like the تابوت گاڑی, hearse, ہیارسی آپ die to get in again
We are so far from آپ

Burning on just like a match آپ strike to incinerate
The lives of everyone آپ know
And what's the worst آپ take (worst آپ take)
from every دل آپ break (heart آپ break)
And like the blade آپ stain (blade آپ stain)
Well I've been holding on tonight

What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight

Came a time
When every سٹار, ستارہ fall brought آپ to tears again
We are the very hurt آپ sold
And what's the worst آپ take (worst آپ take)
from every دل آپ break...

God bless us everyone
We're a broken people living under loaded gun
And it can't be outfoght
It can't be outdone
It can't out matched
It can't be outrun
No

God bless us everyone
We're a broken people living under loaded gun
And it can't be outfoght
It can't be outdone
It can't out matched
It can't be outrun
No

And when I close my eyes tonight
To symphonies of blinding light
(God bless us everyone
We're a broken people living under loaded gun
Oh)
Like memories in cold decay
Transmissions echoing away
Far from the world of آپ and I
Where oceans bleed into the sky

God save us everyone,
Will we burn inside the fires...
