What you do
There's always been an empty space,
inside my hollow heart.
Life just seems like an endless maze,
that keeps taking me back to start.
I spend most of my time just wondering,
not knowing what to do.
But now it seems most of the time,
All I can think about is you.
Sometimes you stop the madness,
that keeps driving me insane.
Somehow you seem to chase away,
all the things that cause me pain
