Empty Air

Chorus

Nothin' weighs as much,
Nothin' hurts your heart to carry,
As empty air waitin' for a love to return.
And if she's never comin' back, you know she doesn't care,
Nothin' weighs as much as that empty air.

Verse 1

This air's inverted.
I am supposed to be an overcomer,
Climbing out on top, get over hurtin'
But this empty air you've left me with is pressing me down,
I'm under all the weight of all the world when you're not around.

[REPEAT CHORUS]

Verse 2

Nobody was goin' to hurt me,
I was feelin' two or three stories tall.
I've got story stacked on story 'bout the way you treat me, Baby,
But the way they've left me feelin' is small, small, small. And

[REPEAT CHORUS]

Verse 2

Nobody was goin' to hurt me,
I thought I was standing ten feet tall.
But the way you treat me, Baby, and this empty air you left me
Has got me on my knees in a crawl, crawl, crawl. And

[REPEAT CHORUS]

Verse 4

Nobody was goin' to hurt me,
I was floatin' over all of the pain.
But the way you treat me, Baby, and this empty air you left me
Has me grounded under clouds and rain, rain, rain. And

Chorus/Tag

Nothin' weighs as much,
Nothin' hurts your heart to carry,
As empty air waitin' for a love to return.
And if she's never comin' back, you know she doesn't care,
Nothin' weighs as much as that empty air.
And if she's never comin' back, you know she doesn't care,
Nothin' weighs as much as that empty air-air-air.
Nothin' weighs as much as that empty air-air-air.
Nothin' weighs as much as that empty air-air-air.
Nothin' weighs as much as that empty air.
