The Empty Bay

[Intro]
[Verse]
Rusted frame on a '94
Oil stains on the floor
Empty bay where we dreamed
Nothing's ever what it seemed
I took the highway out
You stayed to fix the doubt
Now the sky is turning grey
Over every empty bay
The wrenches are all cold
Like the lies that I told
[Pre-Chorus]
The engine is cold
The story is old
I’m driving through the rain
Trying to wash the stain
[Chorus]
I left you in the dust
Turning gold into rust
I chased a neon light
While you fought the fight
I’m a ghost on the line
Running out of time
Yeah, I’m running out of time
[Post-Chorus]
Heavy is the heart
When you tear it all apart
Heavy is the soul
When you lose all control
[Verse]
Faded ticket in the drawer
From the fair back in '04
We were kings of the dirt
Before the silence started to hurt
You stayed to hold her hand
When the winter hit the land
Now the garage door is stuck
Just like that old pickup truck
I’m a thousand miles away
In a suit of dirty grey
[Pre-Chorus]
The engine is cold
The story is old
I’m driving through the rain
Trying to wash the stain
[Chorus]
I left you in the dust
Turning gold into rust
I chased a neon light
While you fought the fight
I’m a ghost on the line
Running out of time
Yeah, I’m running out of time
[Bridge]
The city is loud
I’m lost in the crowd
But I see your face
In every empty space
You’re the one who stayed
For the debt I never paid
Yeah, the debt I never paid
[Solo]
[Chorus]
I left you in the dust
Turning gold into rust
I chased a neon light
While you fought the fight
I’m a ghost on the line
Running out of time
Yeah, I’m running out of time
[Outro]
