Empty Palms Lyrics
when we embarked
thought I had caught
the dark behind the new start
can’t open up
my façade
formed foundations
all falling apart
subtle if you can’t see
behind my smile
you’d see me face down
beneath the silt and sands
buried by my thoughts
the pressure gets so intense
at these depths
squeezing breath ’till nothing’s left
to let the weight of my chest
my closed tight teeth
feed self-esteem
to mislead how I've been
an unseen sinking anchor
I’ll pull you under
fingers can slip
let loose their grip
to our nights entwined
our lives combined
to find tonight
two holding hands now halved
two empty palms apart
it’s best we part
I am broken and no good for you
thought I had caught
the dark behind the new start
can’t open up
my façade
formed foundations
all falling apart
behind my smile
you’d see me face down
beneath the silt and sands
buried by my thoughts
at these depths
squeezing breath ’till nothing’s left
to let the weight of my chest
feed self-esteem
to mislead how I've been
an unseen sinking anchor
I’ll pull you under
fingers can slip
let loose their grip
our lives combined
to find tonight
two holding hands now halved
two empty palms apart
I am broken and no good for you
