Empty Suitcases Lyrics by The Nursery

Life After Wartime

2017

[Verse 1]
A lonely whisper or a thousand screams
Won’t change the picture in the frame I see
I walk a path cut by the moon
The words you’re speaking don’t fit through your mouth
Gone are the treasures you couldn’t live without
A foolish hand a winners' blues
[Chorus]
Without material things your suitcases must all be empty
Cast in to sink or swim you’ll float on until your ready
[Verse 2]
And now it’s bright out and i’m far away from home
Ain’t no star directing where to go
Everything is hard to touch but easy to feel
And now I found you washed up on the shore
Your shadow’s not the shape it was before
Everything is hard to touch but easy to feel
[Chorus]
Without material things your suitcases must all be empty
Cast in to sink or swim you’ll float on until your ready
[Bridge]
Heaven is a lonely place
Heaven's not the only place
We've got the heart, just not the faith
With you
