I’m surprised that people still ask
The jar has always been half empty
Just like my life
Have you ever felt like you should be happy?
You have things that other people only dream of
And yet you find no joy in them
Maybe it’s just me
I never had real dreams
Just followed the clearest path
Now I find myself at a crossroads
I'm going through the motions
Heading down a dark hallway
You don't have to come
Because your words are nothing to me
Tell me I'm shy
You'll see me blush
Tell me you love me
And watch me freeze
I told you to stay away
Keep your love locked up
Because baby I'm empty
And I'll drain it all from you
Make you empty like me
After that you'll sink
Into a black hole of oblivion
Then you'll know
How it doesn't feel to be emotionless..
I'm a shell and I'm empty
No life within
No pain without
I lie in wait in a dead abyss
Empty.
