Empty (Lyrical Ballad)
The flame that I once held
The one that shone bright
Within the ground will meld
On this merciless cold night
The empty night
Will flood with rain
Tonight I fight
Just to stay sane
Dimensions of pain
Will fill the sky
Within this rain
Hear my feint cry
The mistress will fade
The skies will cry
Diamond to jade
Ambition to die
Within that lost soul
Resides a key
Within her
I find me
