[Verse 1] You wait for the day the world will change You never see hope is a cage You tell yourself such pretty lies And watch the world just pass you by You tell yourself you’ve done enough Forgetting life will call your bluff And when it does, it’s always late No second chance, no escape [Pre-Chorus] What’s the mark you think you’ve made? What’s the debt you think you paid? When the silence takes your name Will it leave you just the same? [Chorus] Empty hands don’t hold a thing Cold rooms, never let you in You keep asking where it went But you were never there for it Every choice you never made Every step you walked away Catches up, it always knows And it never lets you go... [Instrumental Solo] [Verse 2] You hide behind the lines you say Pretend the past won’t find its way Every door you left untried Every truth you tried to hide Time will mark the debts you made Nothing’s lost, it only waits And when the weight comes back again It finds the heart that played pretend [Instrumental Solo] [Chorus] Empty hands don’t hold a thing Cold rooms, never let you in You keep asking where it went But you were never there for it Every choice you never made Every step you walked away Catches up, it always knows And it never lets you go... [Bridge] And at the end of it all You'll see the cracks form in the wall The tide will rise and pull you down Nothing left to do but drown Drown in the debts you never paid Drown in the promises betrayed Drown in the silence of your lies Drown in the truth you can’t disguise [Instrumental Solo] [Pre-Chorus] What’s the mark you think you’ve made? What’s the debt you think you paid? When the silence takes your name Will it leave you just the same? [Chorus] Empty hands don’t hold a thing Cold rooms, never let you in You keep asking where it went But you were never there for it Every choice you never made Every step you walked away Catches up, it always knows And it never lets you go... [Outro] Drown...
