Empty Lyrics - Jaiden

[Verse 1: Boyinanband] 

Mirror mirror on the wall, yeah 

Tunnel vision on the flaws 

In the scale of things it's unimportant 

So no talking, but it's still an intrusive thought 

Tried hard to correct it, yeah 

But nothing was effective, uh 

No one else seemed so obsessed with it 

Things were desperate until the voice crept in 

"I can help you, trust me, you're ready" 

It seemed dangerous 

But it said to have faith in it 

"The secret is to just be empty" 

Didn't know if it was wise to listen, but 

What could it hurt to try?

[Verse 2: Jaiden] 

And at first, it was working 

But then things were emerging 

Cracked lips and tired eyes 

I'm hungry with no appetite 

I'm shivering and shaking, and I tell myself it's fine, but 

You can't fool your body, you can only fool your mind, yeah 

Empty 

I just need to be empty 

Hide from anybody who'll prevent me 

Just fill up on water and shame 

No, I'm not hungry, I just ate 

I've developed a taste for this 

Endure the neverending ache 

Convince myself I'm in control and it's not 

All that voice that makes me sick

[Chorus: Boyinaband & Jaiden] 

Inside it's em-em-em-empty 

I know, I know it's wrong 

I'm looking, but I can't see myself 

Inside it's em-em-em-empty 

I know, I know it's wrong 

But it's so hard to stop it alone 

[Verse 3: Boyinaband] 

Been getting even worse 

All the days begin to merge, yeah 

Just a blurry haze and now it's 

Almost second nature to ignore the urges 

Can't trust my own nature 

Every calorie a failure 

Gotta push the intake down every day 

'Cause the voice comes back to say 

"You want to eat? Bite your tongue" 

Don't want to stay an embarrassment 

Just have to stomach it 

"They don't know what you want" 

A tug of war against common sense 

Don't wanna believe that I've overstepped 

[Verse 4: Jaiden] 

But it's so overwhelming 

And I hope no one can tell 

'Cause the numbers keep decreasing 

This ordeal is becoming routine, check 

Arms, back, neck, thighs 

Suck it in and pinch my sides 

The scales are betraying me 

The mirror is a lie, yeah 

Numbers 

It all comes down to numbers 

I know it's wrong but 

Just because you know you're colorblind 

Doesn't mean you can see the colors 

Fine, I admit I'm addicted 

But the hunger feels good, how do I quit this 

I know I could die, I've seen the statistics 

But the voice is with me through thick and thin 

[Chorus: Boyinaband & Jaiden] 

Inside it's em-em-em-empty 

I know, I know it's wrong 

I'm looking, but I can't see myself 

Inside it's em-em-em-empty 

I know, I know it's wrong 

But it's so hard to stop it alone 

Inside it's em-em-em-empty 

I know, I know it's wrong 

I'm looking, but I can't see myself 

Inside it's em-em-em-empty 

I know, I know it's wrong 

But it's so hard to stop it alone 

[Bridge: Boyinaband & Jaiden] 

I can reach out 

To someone not like me 

If you ask for help it, doesn't make you weak 

I can reach out 

Ignore what the voice tells me 

I can help my mind learn to trust my body 

I can reach out 

To someone not like me 

If you ask for help it, doesn't make you weak 

I can reach out 

Ignore what the voice tells me 

I can help my mind learn to trust my body 

[Chorus: Boyinaband & Jaiden] 

Inside it's em-em-em-empty 

I know, I know it's wrong 

I'm looking, but I can't see myself 

Inside it's em-em-em-empty 

I know, I know it's wrong 

But it's so hard to stop it alone 

Inside it's em-em-em-empty 

I can reach out (I can reach out oh-oh-oh-oh) 

Inside it's em-em-em-empty 

I can reach out (I can reach out)
