Empty Suit

A teenager is trying not to show the real him

Mysterious guys are the coolest ones

Won't look at even the best friends in the eyes

Scared of the thought, they could see through

Many years later he still is just pretending

Hiding something he has never found

Locked up from inside and the key is thrown away

Stranger to himself, lost inside

Counting - Years go by

Running - Out of time

Shining - The shine will die

Fading - Out of time

Black and white is all he sees

Colours, they are missing

Life is sometimes shades of grey

But colours he can never feel again

Behind the wall, thoughts of grey, one change, mind's decay

Empty suit, built on ice, one crack, end of lies

The goalline was crossed before he even got to start

Never knew when the time was right

Tried to hurry in everyplace but never got there in time

Now it's too late, the show is sold out

The flame is 'bout to fade inside his little vacuum

No one will give him a hand

No one will hear him through

Counting - Years go by

Running - Out of time

Shining - The shine will die

Fading - Out of time
