Backstory:
I started playing with the idea of feeling emotionally empty and wanting to compare that to things that are empty, or things that are sad when they are empty.
Lyrics:
VERSE ONE
Like a sky lit by a billion stars
His love filled me up
Everything else slipped away
Thought he was more than enough
Then one by one those stars went dark
Like chalk getting erased
Where nighttime used to shimmer
Now there’s only space
CHORUS
Now it feels how it feels to be
A song no one’s playin’
A canvas with no painting
A church where nobody’s prayin’
Words he said just to say ‘em
Left me empty
Empty
VERSE TWO
When you’ve had so much then it’s lost
It gnaws at you like hunger
Twists and crashes, churns and swells
Like A wave you’re drowning under
Promises and wishes
All get washed away
A calendar with no tomorrow
Big black circle on yesterday
CHORUS
Now it feels how it feels to be
A song no one’s playin’
A canvas with no painting
A church where nobody’s prayin
Words he said just to say ‘em
Left me empty
Empty
OUTRO
Yeah it feels how it feels to be
A song that no one’s playin’
A canvas with no painting
Empty
As the house he just moved out of
The promise he ran out on
The love he fell right out of
Left me Empty
Empty
Empty
Now it feels how it feels when
Forever’s somehow over
Cryin’ without a shoulder
Wind blows a little colder
And all alone
Empty
