i don't know if i feel this way because you left
or if i feel this way because i cannot eat
all i know is i am so empty, so very empty
i must've washed my hands a thousand times
to wash off the ghost of yours
and i must've brushed my teeth for hours
to forget the feel of your lips on mine
and i swear i haven't ever scrubbed harder
to get your fingertips off of me
i cannot get rid of you
because instead of blood,
you're in my veins
and i feel so empty
