Empty Glass

Now that I have the stage
Let me get this off my chest
You may not relate
Or notice like the rest
But I'm doing my best
To capture your attention
You can turn your back on me
Or you can stay and listen
Do you hear what I'm saying
Do you feel what I'm playing
Or is this all merely a figment
Of your imagination

I see you as
An empty glass
Thirsty for the truth
You crave the taste
Of a soul misplaced
In an ice ball
Of your youth
Hoping and praying
That you'll find a way
To melt your frozen heart
Let me pour you a shot
Of this pain that I've got
And I'll tell you
Where I would start

I sit here before you
A reflection of light
Beaming into the eye
Of a world
Spinning inside your mind
Burning holes in your clouds
And parting all your seas
Seeping deep into your roots
And moving all your trees
Killing that feeling
Of being lonely
If only you knew what I meant
You could be my one and only

I see you as
An empty glass
Thirsty for the truth
You crave the taste
Of a soul misplaced
In an ice ball
Of your youth
Hoping and praying
That you'll find a way
To melt your frozen heart
Let me pour you a shot
Of this pain that I've got
And I'll tell you
Where I would start

When this song is over
Will I cease to be
You'll just have to wait and see
Where all of this will lead
