Empty Words

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

If I'm gonna be honest I'm scared to tell it all

If I let go of my secrets will I have anything at all?

If I'm gonna be honest transparency's my God

But I keep all of these secrets to make it seem like I'm not lost

I'm not lost

This is the lie I tell myself and this is the reason that I'm still here

Weighed down by the guilt of it all when every confession is insincere

I know, I know it all too well but I keep going back because at least I'll have a story to tell

I have a story to tell

But I'm still dirtier than I thought I'd ever be

I keep hiding from the cross cause deep down I don't want to be free

I wanna hold on to this darkness; scream it loud so I am heard

If I'm gonna be honest, it's the same song I just rearrange the words

I've been too scared to move past

To move past everything I've done

The devil that I know is better than the one I don't

I know it all too well

This is not the story that I want to tell

Cause I'm still dirtier than I thought I'd ever be

I keep hiding from the cross cause deep down I don't want to be free

I wanna hold on to this darkness

Scream it loud so I am heard

If I'm gonna be honest, it's the same song I just rearrange the words

This is the only way I know how to cope

Just grit my teeth and bare it all

This is the only way I know how to feel

So I stay put to keep these stories real

I know there's been truth in the things I've sought

And I've screamed transparency

But I'm all talk
