Jessica Harper - Empty Lyrics

You're running on empty
Running on empty vials
And running to the bone
You know when you're empty
Know when you're empty
You know she'll take the blow

You call on your white horse
On your white horse
To lift you from my mind
You're tired of feeling empty
Tired of feeling empty
And she makes you feel so alive

You never let me
You never let me in
To see the scars you hide
I know that you think she
Know that you think she
Can heal the hurt inside

If I can't have you
She can't pass the walls
I couldn't break through
If I can't have you
She's just something to do

You don't take a spoonful
Don't take a spoonful of sugar
Unless it's brown
She's giving you wings
And caging you in
Then saying you're up in the clouds

I know there's more than
I know that there's more than
One use for your belt
But I wish that you'd use
I wish that you'd use it
On me instead of yourself

If I can't have you
She can't pass the walls
I couldn't break through
If I can't have you
She's just something to do

And I can see by the smile in your eyes
She's taking control
But you see babe you've got to be wise
She'll tear out your soul
I can see by the smile in your eyes
She's in control
But you see babe it's just a disguise

If I can't have you
She can't pass the walls
I couldn't break through
If I can't have you
She's just something to do

If I can't have you
She can't pass the walls
I couldn't break through
If I can't have you
She's just something to do
