Love on Empty

Wasting time in this shadow we call love Drifting apart in silence like a glove Holding on to memories that start to fade Our hearts are trapped in a masquerade Eyes that once glowed now void and cold Words that once healed now uncontrolled We smile for show but inside we're breaking Pretending it's fine but our hearts are aching Love on empty endless night We stay together but lose the fight Holding hands while feeling alone In a house but it's not a home We sit side by side yet miles apart Trying to mend a torn-up heart The echoes of laughter now long gone We stay together but the love's withdrawn Can't let go what we used to believe Staying here though it's hard to reprieve Caught in the tide of yester's embrace Living in shadows of love's lost grace Love on empty endless night We stay together but lose the fight Holding hands while feeling alone In a house but it's not a home
