Familiar Emptiness

I'm always coming home to a familiar emptiness
Spreads through my open soul and leaves me breathless
Maybe you'll be waiting in some corner of my mind
But I know not to get my hopes up this time

Turn the key in the lock, while the cold wind blows again
Greeted by the lonesome dark
It whispers, "Sometimes you just can't win"

It's a broken home, but I'm trying to remember it whole
Taking it one day at a time
Walking this hard line

I don't think it's working anymore
Lately I've been drinking so much worse
There's an absence in my heart, a light that flickered out
I don't know if it's something I can live without

Wish I could hear your laugh echo through this ragged town
Stuck in my dreams of the past
They're whispering, "Baby, it all falls down"

It's a broken home, but I'm doing my best to make it whole
Taking it one day at a time
Walking this hard line

I'm taking it one day at a time
While I'm stumbling down this hard line
