Empty Cause

Would you lie to me, honey
If I compared to the same old song?
Would you care for me, baby?
Are you convinced I'm the only one now?

You've been away for a long, long time, I know
I don't compare to the hollow ground, you know
I'm throwing stones at the only ones I know
Uh oh

Would you write to me, honey
If I was far where I don't belong?
Would you laugh at me, baby?
Would you be there and just stand your ground now?

You're paralyzed when you speak out loud, I know
I recognize that I can't go far, you know
I'm digging deep for an empty cause, I know
Uh-oh

[Instrumental interlude]

You've been away for a long, long time, I know
I don't compare to the hollow ground, you know
I'm throwing stones at the only ones I know
Uh oh

Would you lie to me, honey
If I compared to the same old song?
Would you care for me, baby?
Are you convinced I'm the only one now?

You've been away for a long, long time, I know
I don't compare to the hollow ground, you know
I'm throwing stones at the only ones I know
Uh oh
