Empty Days Lyrics
she is walking on the clouds
and falling in between the crowds
she's trying and crying and dying but i don't stick around
i don't know where i came from
i don't know where i'm going
all i know is won't you take me, won't you take me, won't you take me away?
what would it be
turn out the lights
what would it be
to try to not try
what is the answer
to all my spiders
spirits gone, pushed it away
i tripped on these roads everyday
it seems like they never ever change
they don't know how i got here
oh and neither do you
all these days they go so fast
no they go so slow
all i know is won't you take me, won't you take me, won't you take me away?
what would it be
turn out the lights
what would it be
to try to not try
what is the answer
to all of my spiders
spirits gone, i pushed it away
saying, spirits gone, i pushed it away
oh i'm singing,
na na na na na na na na na na na
away, oh away
and we're singing,
na na na na na na na na na na na
away, oh away
and we're singing,
na na na na na na na na na na na
away, oh away
and we're singing now,
na na na na na na na na na na na
away, oh away
and falling in between the crowds
she's trying and crying and dying but i don't stick around
i don't know where i came from
i don't know where i'm going
all i know is won't you take me, won't you take me, won't you take me away?
turn out the lights
what would it be
to try to not try
what is the answer
to all my spiders
spirits gone, pushed it away
it seems like they never ever change
they don't know how i got here
oh and neither do you
all these days they go so fast
no they go so slow
all i know is won't you take me, won't you take me, won't you take me away?
turn out the lights
what would it be
to try to not try
what is the answer
to all of my spiders
spirits gone, i pushed it away
saying, spirits gone, i pushed it away
na na na na na na na na na na na
away, oh away
and we're singing,
na na na na na na na na na na na
away, oh away
and we're singing,
na na na na na na na na na na na
away, oh away
and we're singing now,
na na na na na na na na na na na
away, oh away

I don't know what it is about this song, but I can't get enough of it...
"she's waking on the clouds" seems somewhat angelic, yet " falling in between the crowds" gives a mortal feeling. I don't know. I never get tired of this song.
I did these lyrics by ear so if anyone has any suggestions of how I can correct them, please tell me.
I think it says "But I'm still around" instead of "But I don't stick around"
I think it says "But I'm still around" instead of "But I don't stick around"
I'm not sure though.

I love this song. Augustana is a great band!

Ok--yeah, I'm going to be honest and say that I downloaded this song. (No cd stores in the country I live in) The thing is, I can't find the lyrics to it anywhere! (No offence to the person that typed this up, it looks almost completely right) It's just that, why is that a lot of sites don't even list this particular song as being one of Augustana's?
the lyrics are all right. :] beauty.
is this really an original augustana song? it seems like a cover of some 90s band but its good nonetheless!
it's "she's trying and crying and dying, but I'm still around." "I don't know where we're going" also not "i try to not try" it's "I try to know, I try" and not "spirits gone", it's "i'm sure it's gone"
and my friend and I think it's about the beginning of a new relationship. Hence "What would it be. To turn out the lights?" and "I don't know where we're going"
Basically he wants her to blow him away and let him know that it's real.
[Edit: Just edited]
It's about the girl he is with, is going through times where she isn't sure about herself, right? She is falling, but he's backing her up?
They'll end up happy.
i absolutelly adore this song. its sounds older like from the 90'. infact it sounds ilke Counting Crows. but i absolutely love Dan's voice in this song! its so soft and young. ♥
