Empty
The Click 5 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tried to take a picture
Of love
Didn't think I'd miss her
That much
I want to fill this new frame
But its empty

Tried to write a letter
In ink
Its been getting better
I think
I got a piece of paper
But its empty
Its empty

Maybe we're trying
Trying too hard
Maybe we're torn apart
Maybe the timing
Is beating our hearts
We're empty

And I've even wondered
If we
Should be getting under
These sheets
We could lie in this bed
But its empty
Its empty

Maybe we're trying
Trying too hard
Maybe we're torn apart
Maybe the timing
Is beating our hearts
We're empty

Oh oh
Oh oh
Ooh
Oh oh
Oh oh

Maybe we're trying
Trying too hard
Maybe we're torn apart
Maybe the timing
Is beating our hearts
We're empty





We're empty
We're empty

Overall Meaning

In The Click 5's song "Empty," the singer reflects on the emptiness he feels despite his attempts to fill the void. The lyrics express the singer's struggle with a recent breakup, as he snaps a picture of love, writes a letter in ink, and considers getting under the sheets with his romantic interest, only to find that each attempt leaves him feeling empty. The repetition of the word "empty" throughout the song conveys a sense of hopelessness and despair, as if the singer is stuck in an endless cycle of unfulfillment.


The lyrics suggest that perhaps the singer and his romantic interest are trying too hard to make things work, as evidenced by the line "Maybe we're trying / Trying too hard." The phrase "Maybe the timing / Is beating our hearts" implies that, despite their love for each other, their circumstances may not be conducive to a lasting relationship.


Overall, "Empty" is a melancholy song that explores themes of heartbreak, loneliness, and the search for meaning and fulfillment. The repetition of the word "empty" creates a hauntingly beautiful and poignant effect, underscoring the singer's feelings of emptiness and despair.


Line by Line Meaning

Tried to take a picture
I attempted to capture the essence of love in a photograph


Of love
Specifically, the love I had for someone else


Didn't think I'd miss her
At the time, I didn't believe that I would experience such overwhelming emotions of absence


That much
But I was wrong


I want to fill this new frame
I desire to focus my attention and affection on someone new


But its empty
But I have yet to find anyone to fill the void that was left behind


Tried to write a letter
I tried to express my emotions through writing


In ink
Using permanent means, to convey the depth of my feelings


Its been getting better
As time passes, I believe I am recovering and healing


I think
At least, that's what I tell myself


I got a piece of paper
I have the means to communicate my emotions


But its empty
But it feels like there's nothing significant enough to write


Maybe we're trying
Perhaps we're making too much of an effort to maintain this relationship


Trying too hard
We might be overthinking and overanalyzing every aspect of our connection


Maybe we're torn apart
The pressure to keep our love alive has caused us some dissonance and disagreement


Maybe the timing
It's possible that the moment isn't right for us to pursue each other


Is beating our hearts
The intense emotions we share are complicating our decision-making process


We're empty
Emptiness has become a common feeling in this relationship


And I've even wondered
I've even contemplated


If we
Both me and my significant other


Should be getting under
If we should engage in sexual activity in order to bring us closer together


These sheets
In our bed


We could lie in this bed
We could spend intimate moments together


But its empty
But even after those moments of intimacy, we still feel a lack of emotional fulfillment


Oh oh
An expression of emptiness, almost like a sigh


Ooh
It's also an emotive expression, conveying the absence of something


We're empty
The sense of hollowness persists
