Empty Head (feat. Granite State)
The days are becoming far and few between when I see the sun
Frigid air, cold fluorescents and an ache in my back
Trickling up to my chest
I've been feeling slow and stagnant like before
Falling asleep on the basement floor
Digging between these ears for something real
And after all of this
There must be something to be said about this empty head
With nothing but thoughts of how hard it'll be to leave my bed
Take me away
But I don't know where I wanna be
It's killing me
None of my friends are where we want to be
Empty head
If this isn't what it takes to write, then give me something else
Because I've tried just about everything I know
Would the world forgive me if I just shut down?
Would I forgive myself?
Would I just forgive myself if I just choose to quit and lay here?
Waste away and live out my fear of my name eroding with the sand
On a sinking ship I can't seem to steer
Maybe this just isn't my year
Bury my dreams and let them die here
I think it's safe to say that time doesn't wait
Frozen by the thought of staying in place
And I just seem to drown amongst the waves
Refuse to swim
I can't be saved, I can't be saved
Swallow me whole, suffocate me
Empty Head
With nothing but thoughts of how hard it'll be to leave my bed
Take me away
But I don't know where I wanna be
It's killing me
None of my friends are where we want to be
Empty head
Frigid air, cold fluorescents and an ache in my back
Trickling up to my chest
I've been feeling slow and stagnant like before
Falling asleep on the basement floor
Digging between these ears for something real
And after all of this
There must be something to be said about this empty head
With nothing but thoughts of how hard it'll be to leave my bed
Take me away
But I don't know where I wanna be
It's killing me
None of my friends are where we want to be
Empty head
If this isn't what it takes to write, then give me something else
Because I've tried just about everything I know
Would the world forgive me if I just shut down?
Would I forgive myself?
Would I just forgive myself if I just choose to quit and lay here?
Waste away and live out my fear of my name eroding with the sand
On a sinking ship I can't seem to steer
Maybe this just isn't my year
Bury my dreams and let them die here
I think it's safe to say that time doesn't wait
Frozen by the thought of staying in place
And I just seem to drown amongst the waves
Refuse to swim
I can't be saved, I can't be saved
Swallow me whole, suffocate me
Empty Head
With nothing but thoughts of how hard it'll be to leave my bed
Take me away
But I don't know where I wanna be
It's killing me
None of my friends are where we want to be
Empty head
