So what happens when the heart just stops
Stops caring for anyone
The hollow in your chest dries up
And you stop believing
So what happens when the heart gives up
But the body goes on living
The blood crawls to a slow and stops
And flows away
Well, we got no-one to meet
No love we would beseech
We only have ourselves to blame for everything
There was no answer in the dust
And I'm missing you so much
And now you're sleeping
And I'm leaving
Empty-handed waiting
In time it will subside, and we'll agree
It was a given
Well there was no standard we could set
And the world, it does regret
To have to leave you in this state of bereavement
You see I'm feeling everything
Nothing gets by
There is a hollow in my chest
This time I won't forget
There is no comfort in the eyes
That put us always to the test
I can't prepare myself for that
But I'll work it out in time
There is a love that flows between us
Ever-changing everyday
I worked myself up to a crawl
But I'm not fearing it at all
We have no reason left to stay
And that's why we're leaving
And there was no answer in the dust
And no-one out there to trust
There is a lie that drags us, beating and pulling
Into disappointment
And misappointment
It's a disappointment
I'm disappointed
There's a bad bone inside of me
All my troubles started there
