Lyrics August Burns Red

August Burns Red

Empty Heaven

Restart your heart

Fill your lungs with this oxygen

Restart your heart, so you are filled with life again

If we could turn back time, stop your decline

Piece you back together until you’ve been revived

We have one more minute to hear your thoughts (To hear your thoughts)

How did you remain so strong?

So many questions left unanswered

So many mysteries we’ll never know

Why do the graceful fall the hardest?

Why do they leave the biggest impact?

So many legends with no endings

We’ll never know

What’s it like to be the breeze?

To be one with the air we all breathe?

The chill that runs up our spines, across our necks

And into the back of our minds?

Gently passing through the room

And haunting everyone who’s ever known you (And what you've been through)

They still feel the warmth of your embrace

You may feel present, but you’re not of this place

You are the revenant watching your own wake

When your days are at an end you’ll never understand

Or fully comprehend, until it’s too late

What’s eternity like when you're the first to arrive?

Take a look around

There’s no one by your side

Will you seek solace in all that you know

Or will you wish that your blood still flowed?

Restart your heart

Fill your lungs with this oxygen

Restart your heart, so you are filled with life again

If we could turn back time (turn back time)

Stop your decline

Piece you back together until you’ve been revived
