Empty Words - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

You left, needed to find yourself

Just an excuse to go and look for someone else

You're back, you're thinking just like that

I can forgive, but let me tell you what I can't forget

Me standing there

As you walked away

Ignoring me when I was begging you to stay

You never turned around

Not even once

While I called your name, said, "Is this what you really want?"

But they were empty words

Now I'm way too numb to ever let them hurt

You didn't get the best of me

I rescued what was left of me

Save it, you can keep your empty words

You're here, through crocodile tears

You make your case describing how much you have changed

You're sure, 'cause it's always worked before

You persuade me you won't doubt your feelings anymore

So confident

But you'll be surprised

It took a while but I can finally recognize

I'm so much better off

With someone else

Who can see what they have when it's right in front of them

And won't give me empty words

Now I'm way too numb to ever let them hurt

You didn't get the best of me

I rescued what was left of me

Save it, you can keep your empty words

Don't need your empty words

Now I'm way too numb to ever let them hurt

You didn't get the best of me

I rescued what was left of me

Save it, you can keep your empty words
