Emptier Still

Dark Tranquility

secrets in here

claim no belonging

together again

or send me to madness

i know that i should have listened

was given a choice i turned down forever



so tell me are you lonely



emptier still

as time takes us farther

away from the goals

by which we are measured

i know that I should have stayed true

to you and to me

but time never heals

so here alone I stand



so tell me are you lonely

tell me are you mine



i see you standing there

your face against the wall

so turn right around

i who know your deepest fear

and yet you walk away

so turn right around so tell me are you lonely

tell me are you mine

don't speak for you are me
