You walk in

Room feels hollow

Every echo

Starts to follow

Shelf of photos

Frames all facing down

You laugh like

You’re about to drown

Sister of emptiness

Wearing your sadness like a Sunday dress

Turning your heart into an untidy room

Sister of emptiness

Filling the silence with a soft confess

Talking in circles just to leave too soon

You say love

Is a borrowed coat

Lose it on purpose

Every time you go

Phone full of names

You’ll never really call

You build your houses

Right into the wall

Sister of emptiness

Wearing your sadness like a Sunday dress

Turning your heart into an untidy room

Sister of emptiness

Filling the silence with a soft confess

Talking in circles just to leave too soon

Do you sleep at all

Or just stare at the ceiling

Counting all the times

You ran from feeling

If I reach my hand

Into that quiet chest

Will I find a spark

Or only unrest

Sister of emptiness

Wearing your sadness like a Sunday dress

Turning your heart into an untidy room

Sister of emptiness

Stay for a minute

Let the chaos rest

I’ll sit beside you in the heavy gloom
