Empty Shell

So here we are
It never goes much further than this
Still we wait for that splendid kiss
And nothing can prepare
For what we've been through
Nothing can ever escape
Everything we've seen, everything we've felt
Still I wait here
Trying to forget, trying to forget
But I can't forget
I can't forget
So I keep on
Looking towards the light
Feeling my own fault
Waiting here for such a great day
I know it's gonna be so much greater than it ever could have been
But is that misery?
And the glory is torture
Keep me in line with those thoughts
And I'll keep reaching out
And I'll keep feeling
Until there's nothing more
'Cause I can't keep on
I can't forget
I can't give in
I can't give up
There's gotta be something more than this
And to wait here for hours
And keep seeing everything fade away
Turn to grey
So here I am offering you
More than I should
More than I could
And in the end you'll know
When you wake up
