Empty Words Lyrics by Death

Symbolic (Remastered)

1995

[Verse 1]
Ashes and promises
Share a bond through the winds of change
Words are blown away
When visions that should be
Are tattooed in your mind
The power to let go is sometimes hard to find

[Refrain]
The answer cannot be found
In the writing of others or the words of a trained mind
In a precious world of memories
We find ourselves confined

[Pre-Chorus]
Claws so razor sharp
Ripping at the spirit

[Chorus]
Promises a potential to hurt, is anything real?
When forever is to be until
Deep inside, in the world of empty words...
No escaping from those haunting empty words...

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
Do you ever feel it? A craving that is so strong
To by thought rewind in order to find

[Verse 2]
Expectations that shined
Through the doubt that soon would turn into the price
Of what a word
Will be worth when tomorrow comes
To be and we are left
Standing on our own and seeing what is real

[Refrain]
The answer cannot be found
In the writing of others, or the words of a trained mind
In a precious world of memories
We find ourselves confined

[Pre-Chorus]
Claws so razor sharp
Ripping at the spirit

[Chorus]
Promises a potential to hurt, is anything real?
When forever is to be until
Deep inside, in the world of empty words...
No escaping from those haunting empty words...

[Outro]
Empty words...
Empty words...
