Empty Street

Walk down the street,
Clouds overhead,
Dark and threatening,
Deep and dreary,
But a welcomed sight all the same.

Walk down a deserted road,
Tears start to fall
As you walk alone.
Think about life,
Think about love,
Your heart breaks all over again.

Love or Hate,
Life or Death,
One without the other,
You're insane.
Can't pick, can't choose,
It's not your choice,
They're both there
No matter what.

One without the other,
It's just not possible,
It's not going to happen,
No matter how much you wish it would,
It'll always be the same.

No matter how many tears you cry,
No matter how much pain you're in,
It'll never be the same.
You wish it would just be the same,
But it's never going to be that way again,
Because life doesn't stay the same,
It won't wait and neither should you.

Walk down the street,
Clouds overhead,
Dark and sad,
Full of pain and regret,
The rain starts to fall,
And then you realize
You're not the only one
Who feels the pain.

Walk down a deserted road,
Feel the fear,
Taste the regret,
It's not going to help,
Nothing's going to help take it all away.
But why would you expect it to all disappear?

The sky opens up,
Dark and sad,
Deep and lonely,
Your tears melt with the sudden rain,
And then you lose your heart.

Empty street,
Empty road,
Empty mind,
Heartless and Broken,
Numb and cold,
You can't take the pain,
Can't stand the regret,
So you let yourself go.

Empty street,
Empty road,
Deserted and broken,
And nobody's there,
Clouds and rain,
Regret and pain,
It waits for the next person,
But you suffer no more.
