Empty
[The Click Five] Lyrics

Tried to take a picture
I attempted to capture the essence of our love in a single image

Of love
But the picture did not properly capture the depth of our emotional connection

Didn't think I'd miss her
I did not anticipate feeling such an intense longing for her presence

That much
But now that she's gone, I recognize the depth of my affection

I want to fill this new frame
I desire to replace the memory of the failed picture with a new, more complete representation of our love

But its empty
But my current experiences and feelings have left a void in my heart

Tried to write a letter
I attempted to convey the depth of our love through words on paper

In ink
But the permanence of ink was not enough to express the transient nature of our emotions

Its been getting better
Our relationship has improved over time

I think
Although I am not completely confident in our relationship's progress

I got a piece of paper
I have a physical manifestation of my attempt to communicate my love

But its empty
But the words I put on the paper were not enough to fill the emptiness in my heart

Maybe we're trying
Perhaps we are putting in too much effort that is ultimately counterproductive for our relationship

Trying too hard
We may be exhausting ourselves trying to hold on to something that is not meant to be

Maybe we're torn apart
Perhaps the natural course of life has led us down different paths

Maybe the timing
It's possible that the circumstances of our lives have interfered with the natural flow of our relationship

Is beating our hearts
Our hearts may be struggling because our timing is off

We're empty
Our hearts are devoid of love and companionship

And I've even wondered
I've contemplated whether our relationship is worth pursuing further

If we
I am considering if we should be intimate with each other

Should be getting under
I am contemplating whether we should be physically intimate with each other

These sheets
I am referring to the sheets on the bed in which we would hypothetically sleep with each other

But its empty
Although we could be physically intimate, the emptiness in our hearts would remain

Oh oh
Repetition of a syllable to express a musical interlude

Ooh
Vocalization to express an emotional response during the interlude

We're empty
Our hearts are devoid of love and companionship

We're empty
Our hearts are devoid of love and companionship

We're empty
Our hearts are devoid of love and companionship
