Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The shoes by the door stay lined up straight
Your little name hangs in the air
I folded the blanket back in place
Like love could make you stay there
The test went bright, then turned to night
My hands still shaking at the sink
I tried to pray with all my might
Then watched the color drain and sink
[Pre-Chorus]
And I keep asking why
My body couldn't hold
The life I was already
Learning how to love
[Chorus]
Empty arms, empty arms
I was ready, I was yours
Empty arms, empty arms
Now I'm standing at the door
My body broke my heart
In the quiet, in the dark
Empty arms, empty arms
I still carry who you are
[Verse 2]
The doctor used words I couldn't keep
Like I was far away from me
I nodded hard and bit my lip
While grief sat down beside my knees
You were a spark, you were a start
A tiny drum behind my skin
Now every room feels split apart
Like something sacred caved in
[Pre-Chorus]
And I keep asking why
My body let you go
I know it isn't blame
But blame is what I know
[Chorus]
Empty arms, empty arms
I was ready, I was yours
Empty arms, empty arms
Now I'm standing at the door
My body broke my heart
In the quiet, in the dark
Empty arms, empty arms
I still carry who you are
[Bridge]
Don't tell me time will make it small
Don't tell me I should move along
I loved you before I saw your face
I loved you in the blood and loss
So if I shake, so if I fall
Let me ache and let me mourn
I'm not made wrong, I'm just a home
That lost the one it waited for
[Chorus]
Empty arms, empty arms
I was ready, I was yours
Empty arms, empty arms
Now I'm standing at the door
My body broke my heart
In the quiet, in the dark
Empty arms, empty arms
I still carry who you are

Style
Indie folk ballad with slow fingerpicked acoustic guitar, soft piano swells, brushed snare, and a mournful cello line; verse stays intimate and sparse, pre-chorus lifts with layered harmony, chorus opens into a wide emotional hush. Breathy lead vocal with gentle doubles on the hook, ad-libbed sighs, and a faint room tone. Subtle reverse piano swells, bowed strings into transitions, and a final chorus with fuller cello and low harmonies. Warm, close-mic, and aching., sad
