the emptiness remains

Fade As the colors start to break And I'm left in the grey with no escape Hold Onto everything I know But it's slipping through my fingers, losing hope I'm searching for A light within the darkness But the weight of every moment pulls me down And I'm caught inside this silence Every thought becomes a riot without sound You left And the emptiness remains In the shadows, every step just feels the same Cold It's all I've ever known And the distance keeps me frozen to the bone When the quiet starts to echo It's a storm without a window And I wonder if it's better being alone Gone Like the promises we made Left behind, but I'm still stuck in yesterday Torn Between the person I once was And the version of myself that I've become I'm reaching for A place where I feel steady But the ground beneath my feet begins to break And the silence feels so heavy As I'm screaming but it's always too late Don't call me now it's too late You left And the emptiness remains In the shadows, every step just feels the same Cold It's all I've ever known And the distance keeps me frozen to the bone When the quiet starts to echo It's a storm without a window And I wonder if it's better being alone I'm drifting, but I'm anchored Can't decide if I should let go or hold on I'm drifting, but I'm anchored Can't decide if I should let go or hold on I'm standing at the edges Where the past and future blur and pull me wrong Pull me wrong You left And the emptiness remains In the shadows, every step just feels the same Cold It's all I've ever known And the distance keeps me frozen to the bone When the quiet starts to echo It's a storm without a window And I wonder if I'm better on my own.
