Empty Flame

[Verse] In the dark night I try so hard Fingers frozen spark won't start Empty tank no fuel inside Fire won't light tears in my eyes [Verse 2] Canvas of stars above my head Shadows dance but the fire's dead Crackling dreams fade to cold Loneliness takes a stronger hold [Chorus] Empty flame can't warm my heart Cold nights keep us apart Propane gone dreams grow faint Spark won't stay what a cruel restraint [Bridge] I remember warmth we used to share Now I'm lost this isn't fair No flickering light no gentle glow Just a heap of ashes and bitter snow [Verse 3] Tried to spark with tired hands But the fire won't heed commands Empty tank and empty dreams Silent night filled with screams
