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
