Empty Book - Nieves

Two kisses are drawn

On a record sleeve

Giving light to words

That couldn’t be more bleak

You cut a line in your arm

So that you can breath

It’s not a cry for help

But it’s help you need

Taught to never be proud

Or to over reach

Letting guilt reside

Where hope should be

I didn’t open your eyes

But I heard you speak

I’m not afraid she cried

I’m not alone you see?

In the light you start to see God in me

Another empty book, a false deity

You’ll never love yourself on bended knee

Another sacrifice, another shame to feel

You saw God in me

You put a gram in your nose

How big are those eyes?

You talk too fast below the beat

Your mouth drawn in at its sides

In the light you start to see God in me

Another empty book, a false deity

You’ll never love yourself on bended knee

Another sacrifice, another shame to feel

You saw God in me

You saw God

In the light you start to see God in me

Another empty book, a false deity

You’ll never love yourself on bended knee

Another sacrifice, another shame to feel

You saw God in me

You saw God
