Testo Empty Bottles - Christopher Grundy
Testo della canzone Empty Bottles (Christopher Grundy), tratta dall'album In This Life
Tears and angry words and plans on fire
Truth all spilled out on the floor
Loved her dearly but I just got tired
Couldn't play along no more
All the painful ghosts we've locked inside
Build the castles we defend
The more we long to be loved the more we hide
It comes to haunt us in the end
And I know that I can't save her
Through any cross that I might bear
For the truth is in the end
I have broken my heart to save myself
From hidden wounds that will not mend
Empty promises, unspoken threats
Years she'd hide when daddy called
Empty bottles lying on the floor
In the closet down the hall
I could never start to fill the breach
Of all that he could never be
I might as well just go down to the beach
And try to fill the open sea
And I know that it's a weakness
And he deserves my sympathy
And I believe in mercy mild
But it's so hard when the sins
Of the fathers and their kin
Are visited upon the child
Tears and angry words and plans on fire
Hidden wounds that will not mend
Empty bottles lying on the floor
Come to haunt us in the end
