Lyrics Doll Skin – Empty House
Text:
I’ve been buried alive
By all this weight that I carry
(When will I get a break?)
Now I think I’ve got a grip
(When will l get a break?)
I know I’m not alone
But I’m sick of being lonely
So I’ll find my comfort here
In my mind
(I’ll learn to love myself!)
In my empty house
When no one’s around me
The walls are bleeding memories
And I can’t breathe
I’m alone
No one’s around me
Just me, myself, and I
I know I’m worth fighting for
I’ve been broken inside
And you won’t listen to my cries
(When will I get a break?)
I am begging you for more
Trapped behind closed doors
(When will I get a break?)
But now I’m not alone
And I’m no longer lonely
I have found my comfort here
In my mind
(I’ll learn to love myself)
In my empty house
When no one’s around me
The walls are bleeding memories
And I can’t breathe
I’m alone
No one’s around me
Just me, myself, and I
I know I’m worth fighting for
Never alone long enough
To see who I truly was
I ripped the bandage off the burn
To see who you truly were
There’s venom in your words
I’m not sure if you heard-
I learned to love myself!
In my empty house
When no one’s around me
The walls are bleeding memories
And I can’t breathe
I’m alone
No one’s around me
Just me, myself, and I
I know I’m worth fighting for
In my empty house
When no one’s around me
I’m alone
No one around me
I know what I’m worth
