Lyrics
I was born on an empty street
where silence filled the air
I knew to walk so carefully
among all the minefields there
Their melancholy surrounded me
like a field of dead flowers
I'd escape inside my dreams
losing myself with every hour
Is there anything else out there
Is there anything more for me
I want to leave this empty street
for a place that feels alive
Where hearts have great capacity
and it's okay to cry
But why is it every time I try
the joke ends up on me
I must be blind because all I ever find
is another empty street
Laying here beside you now
I feel the warmth of your skin
But in my heart I know somehow
you've disappeared again
Your melancholy surrounds me
like a weight upon my soul
It's become so heavy
I can't feel myself at all
Is there anything else out there
Is there anything more for me
I want to leave this empty street
for a place that feels alive
Where hearts have great capacity
and it's okay to cry
But why is it every time I try
the joke ends up on me
I must be blind because all I ever find
is another empty street
I think I finally know that I don't need you
I just need me
No more dead end roads
Now I'm ready to move on so I can
finally be free
I want to leave this empty street
for a place that feels alive
Where hearts have great capacity
and it's okay to cry
But why is it every time I try
the joke ends up on me
I must be blind because all I ever find
is another empty street
Another empty street
Another empty street
