The windows are empty
But the shutters are closed
The door is forever locked
To a story left untold
The chair in the corner
Sits by itself
I'm a dying rose, so say goodbye
To the song you knew so well

Don't take me away
I wanna stay right here
In the moonlit shadows of the night
Just walk away
I'm an empty little house
On an unlit street, in a lonely town
With a broken heart that makes no sound
And I'm here alone as always, tonight

The candle is burning
The light's on but no one's home
In the backyard tree the fireflies dance
Tragedy is a thing they've never known
The wind is blowing
Echoing off of the walls
And I am here to stay
Just wandering these halls

Don't take me away
I wanna stay right here
In the moonlit shadows of the night
Just walk away
I'm an empty little house
On an unlit street, in a lonely town
With a broken heart that makes no sound
And I'm here alone as always, tonight

I've made it past the fall out
Now I'm just waiting for the break down
Don't come back
Just to leave me one more time
Stay away from here
I promise, someday I'll be fine

Don't take me away
I wanna stay right here
In the moonlit shadows of the night
Just walk away
I'm an empty little house
On an unlit street, in a lonely town
With a broken heart that makes no sound
And I'm here alone as always, tonight
