Tangible Emotive

v1:
she is
standing in the empty around her
frozen from the nothing inside her
jaded to the pain that assaults her
but still she hurts
oh, oh

c:
what can I say
oh now what can I do
to awaken myself
to the bright shining truth
that apathy is a disease of the heart
and it’s tearing my very world apart

v2:
she is
seeing tarnished silver
a dullness that has filled her
wondering how it even got there
but still she hurts
oh, oh

(repeat chorus)

b:
standing here I know
I don’t want to be this way
and now looking back
I know it wasn’t OK
I just want to feel
I just want to feel
I just want to feel
again
oh, oh

(repeat chorus)

v3:
she is
crying

(repeat chorus)
