Empty Handed Lyrics

Empty Handed lyrics

no more romantic plan



i've put up and done my best



don't want to lead the blind to scenic landscapes on my chest



i'm leaving you here to rest



no i don't want to pull your weight forever



no more pretending that we'll be together



i'm empty handed when i carried you so long



don't get in



i'm saying i told you so



i'm saying i should have known



i've got enough weight to pull without your fingers on my plate



i'm so glad i let you go



no i don't want to pull your weight forever



no more pretending that we'll be together



i'm empty handed when i carried you so long



don't get in



hating and waiting, frustrating, debating



and feeding and taking and building and breaking



needing and needing till life was receding



and sinking in puddles of tears from you



hating and waiting, debating



and feeding and taking



and building and breaking



completing



and needing and needing



and needing and needing



i'm leaving



there's nothing that you can do.



(you won't have time to pretend that it never was)



no i don't want to pull your weight



no more pretending that we'll be together



i carried you
