Artist Lyrics - Emptiness - Alesana

What is wrong with her eyes? 

A glossy stare that won't leave me be 

Starts my blood running cold 

A gaze that could make hell freeze over 

I have to understand she's gone 

But she's not, don't you tell me that she is dead 

Watch her lips softly move 

Because she's still whispering to me 

And something here is not quite right 

Skin so cold beneath my touch 

As I brush back her hair and close her eyes 

But I cannot stand to turn away 

When I do, she'll be gone 

It's frightening 

Sweaty hands will fail to lock the door 

They'll be here soon 

I wish I could keep my teeth from grinding 

I wish I'd stop looking behind me 

Running now will only make it worse 

They'll be here soon 

I wish I could shake the awful feeling 

I wish my mind would stop 

Maybe I am crazy 

And my mind is trying to deceive me 

As the ground vanishes, I wonder 

Will the sky be the next to fail me? 

Paint abandons canvas 

And my brush can't seem to start again from scratch 

As I watch everything unravel 

Why should I even try to stop the collapse? 

I won't 

Shaking as I rest her body down 

No one knows, only me 

It's frightening 

Sweaty hands will fail to lock the door 

They'll be here soon 

I wish I could keep my teeth from grinding 

I wish I'd stop looking behind me 

Running now will only make it worse 

They'll be here soon 

I wish I could shake the awful feeling 

I wish my mind would stop 

Maybe I am crazy 

And my mind is trying to deceive me 

As the ground vanishes, I wonder 

Will the sky be the next to fail me? 

Paint abandons canvas 

And my brush can't seem to start again from scratch 

As I watch everything unravel 

Why should I even try to stop the collapse? 

Why should I even try to stop the collapse? 

Why should I even try? 

There's a madman glaring, straight at me 

Oh, I know I've seen his face before 

I am sure I've seen his face before 

Maybe I am crazy 

And my mind is trying to deceive me 

As the ground vanishes I wonder 

Will the sky be the next to fail me? 

Paint abandons canvas 

And my brush can't seem to start again from scratch 

As I watch everything unravel 

Why should I even try to stop the collapse? 

I won't
