Lyrics
Empty Handed
I write this, hide this
keep this to myself
Hate this, can't shake this
save us from ourselves
One day too many until we break away
Code of silence
broken by chance
Chain of violence
has them running scared
One day too many until we break away
No more waiting
you know I can't stand it
I'm not leaving you here empty handed
Our own illusions
painted overhead
Come to your senses
mine have all gone dead
Want to save tomorrow
Well stop staring out the window
Now it's time to lose control
Gentlemen, start your engines
let them run in place
I write this...
