Lyrics Empty City - Emily Davis

Well I tried to make it work
But the only fruit this desert yields is hurt
I love the sunsets
A simple life at first
But I can't stay on one single patch of earth
Cause West of the dirt and North of the of the dust
Is a land promised to us to us
So outline and fill in on your cardboard "There or Bust"
And let the rain wash all the stains from this empty city left on us
Well I fought with all I had
But not one sweat droplet rolled from this dry land
I sold my soul for a chance to make a stand
But the only thing left standing is the sand
Cause West of the dirt and North of the of the dust
Is a land promised to us to us
So outline and fill in on your cardboard "There or Bust"
And let the rain wash all the stains this empty city left on us
Well the desert was my lover
But I never really loved her
So leaving her's a hard thing to do
But my feet have started forward
Before I felt the force of it leading me to fortitude
Cause West of the dirt and North of the of the dust
Is a land promised to us to us
So outline and fill in on your cardboard "There or Bust"
And let the rain wash all the stains this empty city left on us
Let the rain wash all the stains this empty city left on us
