My thoughts are dark and empty I'm not crying out loud
G7
Don't know what am I asking for if an answer can be found

The loneliness is killing, though there’s someone in my bed

There's only so much living that I fear I could be dead

And everything seems brighter with the sign of the sun And I said

Lying in my bedroom, my eyes are wide awake

Things are looking up for me, when the clock keeps ticking on

And everything seems brighter, with the sign of the sun And I said
