Empty Hearts Lyrics

He reached for the wire, right out his back door
Jumping from the fire escape, off of his fourth floor
His foot still touching, his hand caught fire
Thirty thousand volts made his heartbeat a liar

Nothin's worse than the dues to pay, for an empty heart

Empty hearts, an empty heart will tear you apart

A screem in the night, dialin' 911
The shock of their lives, over and done
She was alone in the crowd, shadow on the wall The ambulance left, takin' it all
They thought they had somethin' with nothin' to lose
But in the mornin' light - she knew the truth
Nobody noticed - never asked her name
Just a face in the night, gone up in flames

Empty hearts

She loved him so much, they thought they had it made
But when the sun came up, he never saw the light of day
