Empty Skies, Hollow Heart
Like empty skies
my hollow heart,
nothing there;
No hope, no light.
no, nothing fair.
I stand alone,
my heart, my lair.
Keep 'way from me,
don't hold me near
lest you be swallowed
despair and fear.
My hollow heart,
no hope, no light
heaven's falling
no foe to fight,
save me.
My hollow heart,
like empty skies:
blackened night,
monochrome.
A thousand points
the stars so bright,
someone here
has shown a light.
dare I hope?
I think, not yet.
There's something still
i've yet to get.
My hollow heart
hollow no more.
The empty skies
now filled with stars
lost no longer
moving on.
Found my way,
found my hope
The sun is rising,
the vibrant dawn
lights my way.
I'm moving on.
