Empty
Been there
Done that
The excitement's gone
Where's my life at?

I go through life
In a sarcastic voice
With a bored face
Like I have no choice

I stand alone
In a crowded room
Everyone's laughing
While I sit in gloom

While there is no happiness
There's also no pain
There's nothing inside me
To lose or to gain

Too afraid to take risks
Too paranoid to try
I cannot truly smile
I cannot truly cry

In the dark
I force myself to feel
Force myself to know
That this life is real

My escape to emotion
Exists only in my dreams
But in this moment of silence
That plan's ripped at the seams

I hide from my thoughts
Too afraid that I'll see
But now I know the truth
I am empty
