Empty Air

Chorus

Nothing weighs as much,
Nothing hurts your heart to carry,
As empty air waiting for a love to return.
And if she's never coming back, you know she doesn't care,
Nothing 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 going to hurt me,
I was feeling 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 feeling is small, small, small

[REPEAT CHORUS]

Verse 2

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

[REPEAT CHORUS]

Verse 4

Nobody was going to hurt me,
I was floating over all of the pain.
But the way you treat me, Baby, and the empty air you left me
Has me grounded under clouds and rain, rain, rain.

Chorus/Tag

Nothing weighs as much,
Nothing hurts your heart to carry,
As empty air waiting for a love to return.
And if she's never coming back, you know she doesn't care,
Nothing weighs as much as that empty air-air-air.
Nothing weighs as much as that empty air.
And if she's never coming back, you know she doesn't care,
Nothing weighs as much as that empty air-air-air.
Nothing weighs as much as that empty air.
