Empty People by Timothy Joel Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It was a warm summer day, we were playing in the fields
Then you kissed me on the neck, and I don’t know how to feel about you now
It felt like wow
We played knight in shining armor, and you’d always be my queen
I’d be there when you’d need saving, can’t believe that we were only thirteen
Felt like a dream
[Pre-Chorus 1]
You’d call me any time you want, you know you’d always reach me
We’d spend our sleeping hours sharing things that scared us deeply
Like what the future holds for us, as if we had a clue
I’d tell you not to worry, cos there’s always me and you
[Chorus]
Cos we’re young! And we’re dumb!
And we should be living our lives to the full
Fuck the rules! It don’t matter!
Life’s a test but we don’t need the answers
Cos we are all just empty people needing someone to fill up that void in our hearts
You made it clear from the start
That we’re never gonna be apart
[Verse 2]
Now we’re all grown up it seems, it’s two thousand and eighteen
And your body keeps me warm at night
It’s crazy how it’s still just you and me, between the sheets
We get drunk at 2pm, play hooky do it again
Share a cigarette on the rooftop, and we’d make out with each other hand in hand
This just can't end
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Times are getting tougher and sometimes we might fight
It’s funny how we argued letting each other be right
From the moment that we met I knew our fates were intertwined
I love you dear, I hope you know that you’ll always be mine
[Chorus]
Cos we’re young! And we’re dumb!
And we should be living our lives to the full
Fuck the rules! It don’t matter!
Life’s a test but we don’t need the answers
Cos we are all just empty people needing someone to fill up that void in our hearts
You made it clear from the start
That we’re never gonna be apart
It was a warm summer day, we were playing in the fields
Then you kissed me on the neck, and I don’t know how to feel about you now
It felt like wow
We played knight in shining armor, and you’d always be my queen
I’d be there when you’d need saving, can’t believe that we were only thirteen
Felt like a dream
[Pre-Chorus 1]
You’d call me any time you want, you know you’d always reach me
We’d spend our sleeping hours sharing things that scared us deeply
Like what the future holds for us, as if we had a clue
I’d tell you not to worry, cos there’s always me and you
[Chorus]
Cos we’re young! And we’re dumb!
And we should be living our lives to the full
Fuck the rules! It don’t matter!
Life’s a test but we don’t need the answers
Cos we are all just empty people needing someone to fill up that void in our hearts
You made it clear from the start
