Empty that's the way I feel 
Lights are on nobody is home
Empty is my permanent situation
Stuck in a rut it's a brutal syndrome 
Empty my river has run dry
No sun is shining in my sky 

Empty is a face without a smile
A vacant stare behind sad eyes 
Empty is a limbo land of no return
Day after day of cloudy skies
Empty a desert where flowers don't grow
On my knees an all time low

Empty can't feel my heart beating
But my life goes on all the same
Empty got no get up and go
Just got my sad self to blame
Empty through the motions just going
My brain is dead my mind blowing 

Empty is my state of mind
Empty my future is blind
Empty time to leave it all behind
Empty to my fate I am resigned
Empty

Love the lyrics - as Graham said, "Keep 'em coming".

Hi Frances 🙂 - It's not me singing. I used an AI app Suno. Just gives my work another dimension. I am working on my voice. All my lyrics though.

Wow! I've always been a fan but didn't know you could sing! Really liked your voice - never mind your words! A lovely musical surprise and clever intimate words.
Huge.
Thank you.
