[Verse 1]
The city sleeps but I am awake
Hiding from the dreams that wait
Chasing memories that escape
While running from my old mistakes
I'll go with you with nothing at all
In searching for a better place
We'll leave the loneliness thats inside
Forget and travel far away
[Pre Chorus]
Oh I know, we have things we regret
All the pain, and the fear and guilt, we can leave it all behind
And I feel, as if you're right beside me
But I don't know if you'll come alive, so I keep you inside
[Verse 2]
It's deafening but I feel alone
Surrounded and invisible
Softened by the silence around
Praying for a miracle
Come close and tell me that it's okay
We'll run off to the rolling hills
We'll paint the sky with dreams overhead
We'll close our eyes and just sit still
[Pre Chorus]
Oh I know, we have things we regret
All the pain, and the fear and guilt, we can leave it all behind
And I feel, as if you're right beside me
But I don't know if you'll come alive, so I keep you inside
[Chorus]
We'll fly away
Create a place
Where time is gone
And past erased
I know someday
I'll see your face
But for now I'll wait
In empty space
[Verse 3]
The city sleeps but I am alive
Yearning for the sky ahead
Memories burned up into ash
"We'll move on and forget," you said
I'd go with you for nothing at all
To escape the seas of red
But loneliness, it follows with ease
So I hang by a single thread
[Chorus]
We'll fly away
Create a place
Where time is gone
And past erased
I know someday
I'll see your face
But for now I'll wait
In empty space
[Outro]
In a world of empty space
