Empty Words lyrics

With a hopeless heart and bloodshot eyes

The walls are closing in, this smile is my disguise

An anxious mind like a rising tide

Constantly drowning in a sea of endless lies

What did I expect to find in the shadow of a better life

My choices left me paralyzed, it's time to face the truth

I found myself trapped in this hell

Surrounded by empty words and tired excuses

I disguise myself 'til there's nothing left

Surrounded by empty words

These shackled hands bound by righteous chains

I need to search my soul and try to rearrange

This wasted life, so consumed by shame

Constantly lashing out and taking zero blame

What did I expect to find in the shadow of a better life

My choices left me paralyzed, it's time to face the truth

I found myself trapped in this hell

Surrounded by empty words and tired excuses

I disguise myself 'til there's nothing left

Surrounded by empty words

I never knew these empty words were haunting you

I never knew these empty words were haunting you

With every breath, I'm straying further from the truth

I found myself trapped in this hell

Surrounded by empty words and tired excuses

I disguise myself 'til there's nothing left

Surrounded by empty words

(Empty words)
