Steal her pain away
And die before the next
Word is uttered from
An empty place
Empty heart
Empty soul
Empty words
Empty holes
Cannot be filled
With platitudes alone
Soulful songs
Soulful eyes
Dark empathy
No surprise
Broken hearts
Broken sighs
Nobody
Knows quite why
Every word vanishes
Into the darkness
Change the subject, hurry along now
Don't reply
Make no contact
Just ignore
Out of sight, out of mind
Once you're lost, you'll never find
What you're looking for
No point anymore
Once you're lost, you'll never find
What you're looking for
No point anymore
Stay empty
Hardened eyes, like a shell
Round a tender, broken soul
Stare blankly, say nothing
Protect yourself at the expense of anyone
Lose your soul just to live
Because everyone goes away in the end
Nothing lasts
Everything ends
So what's to be gained by prolonging
Too much of a good thing?
Why stress your luck?
Just go out with a flash
You'll be soon forgotten
Or remembered awhile
Subject of a scandal
A scandal she won't be around to witness
Not even one little peek
Because she always turns back
Can't be strong
Can't move on
Always longing for the past
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Our lives shall be
The death of us
