Empty Handed Lyrics by Empathy Test

Just Got Home: Best of 2014-19

2019

[Verse 1]
My heart is an empty vessel
Drifting out to sea
I try my best to be what you want me to be
You can try and help me
You could drown me gently
You could tell me all of the things that I want you to say

[Verse 2]
I hear running water
Hear you knocking on the door
I spent an hour or more just lying on the bathroom floor
You can try and help me
You could drown me gently
You could tell me all of the things that I want you to say

[Chorus]
And you, you could walk away empty handed
You, you could walk away empty handed

[Verse 3]
The wave that came has broken
And the void has swallowed me
A door before me stands ajar, I thought I'd run but I’m not free
You can try and help me
You could drown me gently
You could tell me all of the things that I want you to say

[Chorus]
And you, you could walk away empty handed
You, you could walk away empty handed

[Outro]
And you, you could walk away empty handed
You, you could walk away empty handed
You, you could walk away empty handed
You, you could walk away empty handed
You could walk away empty handed
