KATIE PAQUIN Shameful World CD

9. An Empty Everything
 
This house feels so empty
 without you inside .
 The officer came
 and told me you lied.
 What a beautiful answer.
 Well, at least you tried.
 Now its morning and everything's over. (over)
 this car feels so reckless
 without you to drive.
 The DMV came
 to say you were alive.
 What a strange inconvenience
 well hey, you still tried.
 Now its morning and everything's over.
 
[Chorus]
 
and the memories we remember
 will slip into September.
 And leave us alone.
 Then when fall leads to December,
 then the dying of the ember
 will carry us home.
 Now the sun took my happiness away
 (Took it away) (Away)
 and darkened the room.
 And left me with flowers
 on top of my tomb.
 But those dying flowers they never did bloom.
 Now its afternoon, everything's over.(It's over)
 The seed made a tree
 To shadow the grave.
 (shadow the grave)
 The light never saw it
 but washed out the date.
 Engravings were written to never be saved.
 Now its afternoon and everything’s over.

 [Chorus]

 and the memories we remember
 will slip into September
 and leave us alone.
 Then when fall leads to December
 then the dying of the ember
 will carry us home.
