Empty Handed lyrics
by Michelle Branch



It's easier to give in

Some people mistake me

They only hear what they want to hear

If you're losing sleep

Forgive me

I just can't keep pretending



I'm packing my bags 'cause I don't wanna be

The only one who's drowning in their misery

And I'll take that chance 'cause I just wanna breathe

And I won't look back and wonder how it's supposed to be

How it's supposed to be



There's a prism by the window

It lets the light leak in

I wish you would let me

You feel the water but do you swim?

And it's only me empty-handed

With a childish grin and a camera



I'm packing my bags 'cause I don't wanna be

The only one who's drowning in their misery

And I'll take that chance 'cause I just wanna breathe

And I won't look back and wonder how it's supposed to be

How it's supposed to be



la da da da



I'm packing my bags 'cause I don't wanna be

The only one who's drowning in their misery

And I'll take that chance 'cause I just wanna breathe

And I won't look back and wonder how it's supposed to be

How it's supposed to be



'Cause I'm packing my bags

And I won't be back
