Empty Man Lyrics

I'll give the inch but who will take the mile

I'll buy a ring but no one to walk the aisle

Always to be I instead of we

I wear a amsk to show I never feel

It'd be alright if my heart was made of steel

But deep down inside emptiness has no place to hide

Please do your best to understand

Sometimes it's hard to give a damn

Imagine how alone I am

They call me the empty man

I walk a road that few men ever walk

I listen hard but there's seldom any talk

No way to know which way I am to go

No need to question when the answer has been known

For the reason not the purpose of my actions stand alone

And as I climb I fall so far behind

Please do your best to understand

Sometimes it's hard to give a damn

Imagine how alone I am

They call me the empty man

The sun won't shine when you stand beneath a cloud

No one will hear you if you never speak out loud

The walls close in

I've lost another friend

I seek out substance in a world of make believe

I live on lies

It's myself I do deceive

As time goes by I live a deeper lie

Please do your best to understand

Sometimes it's hard to give a damn

Imagine how alone I am

They call me the empty man
