My Empty House (EN)

My Empty House (EN)


I'm back home.
My door shuts, the key clicks,
The air is cold,
Like I'm deep in the waters of Styx,
I'm standing still,
Leaning weary against the door!
The silence kills!
A hush I can't stand for!

I'm taking off my
Good old, but boring coat.
I slowly step inside
My house, I finally bought.
The tap drips slowly,
Like counts my remaining time.
I'm old and lonely,
In the hateful shelter, shelter of mine!

My empty house, my empty house,
No one hears my call,
My empty house, my empty house,
Pain stays in the soul,
My empty house, my empty house,
I break and don't make a sound.
My empty house, my empty house,
Nobody's around...

If I could split my sinful soul in two,
I'd keep the pain, I'd hand the joy to you!
I don't need much! A close friend to care!
A voice to hold! And real love to share!
But
All is the same here! I don't know why!
I call your name! And no reply!
I talk to walls! No answer back!
Night slowly falls, and the hurt attacks!

My empty house, my empty house,
No one hears my call,
My empty house, my empty house,
Pain stays in the soul,
My empty house, my empty house,
I break and don't make a sound.
My empty house, my empty house,
Nobody's around...

My empty house.
My empty world.
My empty life
On hold...
