TAXONOMY
Blank walls and hollow halls
Bedrooms, now vacant vaults
Reminders of all the ways to wake up next to nothing
Emptiness claims a space
It has a name
I suppose its something
Of all the days to wake up next to nothing
So this is it, more or less
If not to feel the nameless
Emptiness I gave it a shape, a place, its mine I guess
Not to justify or explain
Just to give it a name
Fluorescent light blink on, blink off, blink on again
It's been sometime now, sometime now since I have heard from them
Blank walls and hollow halls
Bedrooms, now vacant vaults
Reminders of all the ways to wake up next to nothing
So this is it, more or less
If not to feel the nameless
Emptiness I gave it a shape, a place, its mine I guess
Not to justify or explain
Just to give it a name
Oh, I looked into the void and was overjoyed to find it staring back
I held its gaze too long, was then annoyed to see it fade to black
You aren't meant to hold a space and know why
It disappears when occupied
So this is it, more or less
If not to feel the nameless
Emptiness I gave it a shape, a place, its mine I guess
Not to justify or explain
Just to give it a name
