Half Empty

from Dust by The Phoenix Bridge

lyrics

They believe in me
As often as they try
They know not the burden
They can’t look me in the eye
Sever my affections
Without ever standing by
I’m always the last one to smile
But the first one to cry

Return the heart
Before it’s past its better days
Catch you in the moment
Sit beside me, stay
Children crying because
Their mother’s gone away
She’ll be gotten soon
At the rate she’s whispering
She’s whispering
Whispering

Chorus
She’s free
Lovely
Help me
I’m half empty
My sweet
Something
I’m weak
And half empty

This sweet illusion you
Control the petty mind
Your eyes seductive
But your heart is all but blind
Your life begins to crumble between your fingers and your thoughts

All will fall to pieces if you try
You could crumble it to pieces if you tried
Chorus

Bridge
The wait is almost over
Then they’ll see in time
Then they’ll see in time
The world is on your shoulder
And they’ll see this time
And they’ll see this time

My reflection sends me
Staring back in time
As a younger man
I never questioned why
Someone tells me
As I weaken deep inside

It’ll follow you forever
No leaving this behind
No leaving this behind
No leaving this behind
Can’t leave it all behind
Can’t leave it all behind

Chorus

Bridge

about

The Phoenix Bridge

Loud and soft. Off kilter, but on point. Perfect imperfection. A constant regrowth of musical scar tissue. An infinite pattern of destruction and rehabilitation. Contradiction, yet making complete sense. Not Grunge, just Crash.
