Empty Lyrics

Here you'd have to win the lottery to lock up a crook

I sit at home wishing my walkie would ring

And say there's a robbery a block away, look

He stole a hundred gold rings

But no. I see

No one wants to steal things and run away

You know, that's safe

To be a cop you don't need a high crime rate

Terry we're outta peanut butter

What do you want me to do about it

Get peanut butter

I'm allergic

This is what we've trained for

You're right

That's a good thing

I don't even really want to do the right thing

I couldn't even really care less about the law

Then why become a cop in the first place

It's the only opportunity I saw

Because I don't know what happens when you die

But I do know what you leave behind

Woah oh, woah oh

You leave nothing if you're

Empty

I've never been anything but

Empty

I have to do something

I'm alright if I have to dig my own grave

Just as long as the tombstone reads: that tracy did anything at all

Oh come on, you know you're only twenty-nine

I'm over double that, all you've got is time

That's not the point

What'll happen if I die today

Right away

There'd be no proof I even lived, see

Id have never left a thing to outlive me

I'd have never met a guy, I'd never even start

I wanna meet a tall guy with a big heart

Okay the tall guy isn't make or break

But I don't wanna meet someone way too late

Cuz' I don't know what happens when you die

But I do know what you leave behind

Woah oh, woah oh

You leave nothing if you're

Empty

I've never been anything but

Empty

To fill my life, you know I've tried

I don't want to climb in an empty grave

Because empty it would stay

Empty it would stay when I'm inside
