paroles de chanson Empty Houses - A Foreign Affair

There was a smile and wave over other signals
While you dug your grave underneath the floorboards
Asking God to show his face
So he could fill the empty space
Spending your nights alone, staring at the ceiling
Kept inside our mind, a prisoner to believing
That the world had shut you out
When you did it all yourself
(So you threw it all away)

And we are done
I′m buying out
From all the pain you kept inside
All of the pain you hid behind
You hid behind

Now there's an empty house, floorboards falling down
Just like the hollow shelf you once had walked around
All your things are in the street
In a box that′s labelled free
Spending your nights alone, staring at the ceiling
Trapped inside your mind, a prisoner to believing
That the world had shut you out
When you did it all yourself

And we are done
I'm buying out
From all the pain you kept inside
All of the pain you hid behind
And you kept quiet
And lived your life
From all the pain you kept inside
All of the pain you hid behind
You hid behind

You kept your faith but you lost your hope
You tied the knot but you cut the rope
And when you listened to God he never spoke

And you kept quiet
And lived your life
From all the pain you kept inside
All of the pain you hid behind
You hid behind
