Empty

I'm not angry with anybody but myself. 
Should have seen it coming, the calm before the storm. 
Told myself and everybody that I was doing great. 
Saying how nothing could get me down, that was a mistake. 

Cause tonight it seems every song reminds me of how lonely I am. 
And I can tell that I am bringing down all of my friends. 
Thought my heart would be safe if I didn't believe. 
But since I gave up on love, I just feel so empty. 

I kept telling myself that everything happens for a reason. 
Lately I just want to know what that reason is. 
Cause I feel like I've wasted my life waiting. 
Watching as everything passes me by. 

Today I stand here realizing how lonely I've been. 
As I kneel here praying to an old friend. 
Thought my heart would be safe if I didn't believe. 
But since I gave up on faith, I just feel so empty. 

Sometimes I blame myself for the things out of my control. 
It has left me broken, deep inside. 
I tried living in the moment only to find 
the moment I was living for wasn't mine. 

Tonight I'm drunk enough to remember how lonely I am. 
Saying things, pushing away all of my friends. 
Thought my heart would be safe if I didn't believe. 
But since I gave up on living, I just feel so empty.
