I say no you don’t
I tell you to find some other girl
You say no I won’t
Listen to me
I am despair
There’s nothing in there!
I feel like I have lived forever
When I’m looking back
I cannot afford to let you in
I gave all I had
You can try to force your way inside
But you will enter blind
Into a vacant, void of darkness
With nothing there to find
~~~*Chorus*~~~
Why don’t
you tell me
How deeply
do you want to see
My heart is
an endless cavern
It echoes
back what I don’t need
Chambers
of laughter
That it
once contained
Are hollows
of heartache
Walls built
out of pain
Listen to
me
Avoid
despair
There’s
nothing in there!
~~*~~
Now you’re claiming that you understand
I say no you don’t
Say I’ll love you if I only try
I say no I won’t
Listen to me
I don’t care
There’s nothing in there!
~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~
You tell
me
I am not alive
If I have
no love inside
To wake up,
and quit playing dead
~~*~~
~~*~~
I agree
That I have
died
I’m just a
body biding time
At least I
have nothing to dread
There’s no
despair
With nothing
in there
~~*~~
~~~*Chorus*~~~
Why don’t
you tell me
How deeply
do you want to see
My heart
is an endless cavern
It echoes
back what I don’t need
Chambers
of laughter
That it
once contained
Are
hollows of heartache
Walls
built out of pain
Listen to
me
Avoid
despair
There’s
nothing in there!
~~*~~
You just
don’t care
When
nothing’s in there
~~*~~
