Ray LaMontagne – Empty Lyrics  Share

From Ray LaMontagne's album: Till The Sun Turns Black

She lifts her skirt up to her knees
Walks through the garden rows with her bare feet, laughing
I never learned to count my blessings
I choose instead to dwell in my disasters

Walk on down the hill
Through the grass grown tall and brown
And still it^,s hard somehow to let go of my pain
On past the busted back
Of that old and rusted Cadillac
That sinks into this field collecting rain

Will I always feel this way
So empty, so estranged

Of these cutthroat busted sunsets
These cold and damp white mornings I have grown weary
If through my cracked and dusty dimestore lips
I spoke these words out loud would no one hear me

Lay your blouse across the chair
Let fall the flowers from your hair
[ Empty lyrics from

And kiss me with that country mouth so plain
Outside the rain is tapping on the leaves
To me it sounds like they^,re applauding us
The quiet love we make

Will I always feel this way
So empty, so estranged

Well I looked my demons in the eye
Laid bare my chest said do your best destroy me
See I^,ve been to hell and back so many times
I must admit you kinda bore me

There^,s a lot of things that can kill a man
There^,s a lot of ways to die
Yes and some already dead who walk beside you
There^,s a lot of things I don^,t understand
Why so many people lie
Well it^,s the hurt you hide that fuels the fires inside you
