Empty Joy

Wake me up and get me out
God only knows what I found
Collect my bones as they break
Remember me for my good days

I'm trapped in a cycle
Created by man and forged by mind
I've seen the unspeakable
Time has got its noose tied tight

This touch is getting old
A delicate kiss from his scythe
His hands turn me to stone
Time has got its grip so tight

What are you expecting me to say?
I've been lost for so many days
There's no hope for me to change
Now I know, I love the pain

I can feel it ending
I can feel it creeping
I'm running out of time
And I can't see the line

God please show me something
I've been hearing screaming
From the corners of my mind
Shadows that never hide

Wake me up and get me out
God only knows what I found
Collect my bones as they break
Remember me for my good days
Keep the pieces hidden away

Is there a point in seeking joy?
If I'll never feel alive?
It's not worth my time to seek a high
If I'll only feel empty joy

I've been feeling empty
I've been feeling anxious
I've been feeling empty
I've been feeling nothing
I've been feeling nothing

I can feel it ending
I can feel it creeping
I'm running out of time
I'm running out of time

God please show me something
I've been hearing screaming
From the corners of my mind
Shadows that never hide
