Verse 1:
I gave you all my mornings, every dying breath
Carved out all my ribs just to house your silhouette
Your laughter lives in corners where my screams should be
I can't find my pulse beneath your memory
Your coffee cup's a gravestone on my kitchen table
Your phantom haunts my mirror, I retreat—still scared and unable
I thought love meant salvation, thought it meant rebirth
But I'm buried alive beneath what I thought I was worth
Chorus:
How empty of me to be so full of you
To bleed out my essence in your desert of untruth
I gave you my center, gave you my God-damned name
Now I'm suffocating in the wreckage of my shame
How empty of me to be so full of you
So full of you that I can't breathe
Verse 2:
I worshipped at your altar, sacrificed my soul
Changed my blood, changed my bones, lost all control
Bent on being your salvation, your perfect tragedy
Till I murdered the woman you claimed to love in me
Your voice is still the scripture carved into my brain
Your absence is the violence that's driving me insane
I thought love was communion, thought it sanctified
But all that's left is the stain of blood from the beating I survived
Chorus:
How empty of me to be so full of you
To bleed out my essence in your desert of untruth
I gave you my center, gave you my God-damned name
Now I'm suffocating in the wreckage of my shame
How empty of me to be so full of you
So full of you that I can't breathe
Bridge:
They say that love should resurrect you
But I am six feet underground
Clawing at the coffin lid
Of who I'll never be again
I am the cathedral you desecrated
Holy, broken, scarred, and bleeding
But praying to an empty sky
That only you could fill with meaning
And God, that's the most vicious part
Of how this story burns to ash—
I lost myself so violently
That I can't tell where the crash
Ends and I begin
Final Chorus:
How empty of me to be so full of you
To drown my own fire in your ocean blue
I buried my heartbeat in your hurricane
Now I'm clawing my way back through the pain
How empty of me to be so full of you
So full of you that I couldn't breathe
