empty

One step ahead, then two behind
Will I ever cross the finish line
Halos burning, fires near
Fate keeps shuffling what I hold dear

If the mirror tells me what to do
My legs are heavy, I can't push through
I've learned too many feelings, lost my way
That's what brought me here today

And if I turn to stone, don't ask me why
The only shade I love is gray in the sky

And all I hear, it's far too late
To save you now, to change our fate
The race is cold, the void consumes
No space for hearts, no space for truths

Vampires steal the joy inside
No glowing light, no place to hide
Not a bullet, not a broken bone
It's life drained out, I'm left alone

Maybe I should forget, unlearn the pain
But how to choose when all paths are the same
Between a draw and the game's decay
I breathe alone with no place to stay

And all I hear, it's far too late
To save you now, to change our fate
The race is cold, the void consumes
No space for hearts, no space for truths

The lights go dark, there's nothing near
In shades of gray, I disappear
