Empty Tonight

Empty Tonight

A Poem by Sarah Morgan
"

A song I wrote for my past year that I've had thought it summed it up.

-Empty Tonight-

Tonight I sleep on this bed of nails 
I lie awake in my own personal hell 
I can't love myself because you don't love me 
I look in the mirror, What a tragedy  
What do I see, Well that can't be me 
 
My hair is a mess, I'm a total wreck 
I might as well use my necklace as a noose upon my neck 
This make up can't cover up the stains 
The tears they come, They come like rain 

 
(Course) 
Tonight I'm empty inside 
Like everyday, but this time I can't run and hide 
No not this time 
I'm guilted by my wrongs and they over shine my rights 
I can't make everything better just by getting high tonight 
I'm empty inside, oh, I'm empty inside 
 
You say she don't mean a thing just an image of sexual fantasy 
Well she's not me, I'll never be 
You've put me in the place where I most oven disgraced others for being 
How could you do this to me?
I'm torn out from the inside 
My mind has not even the simplest pride  
You've lied to me for the last time 
 
(Course) 
Tonight I'm empty inside 
Like everyday, but this time I can't run and hide 
No not this time 
I'm guilted by my wrongs and they over shine my rights 
I can't make everything better just by getting high tonight 
I'm empty inside, oh, I'm empty inside

Author's Note

Sarah Morgan
This to me is one of the most deepest songs I've ever written. It sums up my past couple of years I've been having with marriage, drugs, love, and myself. Today it just came to me and I wrote down all my feelings and put it into a song.
