| Empty house |
| You remind of when I was ten years old |
| Staring at your wall, feeling mighty old |
| Promising myself I’d never get too bold |
| Empty house |
| Your silence holds secrets I can’t keep |
| And the bird in her cage never falls asleep |
| She wails into the night and fails to give me peace |
| But in my hand |
| I hold the picture of a man |
| Who once loved me long ago |
| When he told me |
| «What you need to understand is |
| You’ll never be alone |
| No matter, no matter time |
| Whatever space, right down to the line |
| You will find |
| Another face, new love to shine |
| A change of pace, a brand new rhyme |
| You won’t be on your own» |
| Empty heart |
| Your memories are following me to bed |
| They’ve crawled into my pillow |
| Now they’re stuck inside my head |
| I’ve tried so hard to leave them |
| But they’ve re-emerged instead |
| This house she could inspire |
| This house she could revive |
| I’m stuck here with desired |
| But at least I’m still alive |
| I don’t know what I’m chasing |
| My breath is running out |
| My mind, she is racing |
| With you in her no doubt |
| But in my hand |
| I hold the picture of a man |
| Who once loved me long ago |
| When he told me |
| «What you need to understand is |
| You’ll never be alone |
| No matter place, no matter time |
| Whatever space, right down to the line |
| You will find |
| Another face, a new love to shine |
| A change of pace, a brand new rhyme |
| You won’t be on your own» |
