Tonight, the Air is Empty
Tonight, the Air is Empty

Tonight, the air is empty.
Lingering there like a lost shadow.
Forever to be unseen, but forever wanting.
Tonight, the air is empty.
Loves lost what it not has,
Losing sight of what now is, longing for what once was.
Tonight, the air is empty.
Let the reign of those around prosper,
For the heart of one should not affect the hearts of many.
Tonight, the air is empty.
The past winds decayed away at stone and mountains,
But not through the buried emptiness of the heart.
Tomorrow will be another day,
But tonight's air is still empty,
The burden escapes not through time.
