Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I woke up this morning
I could barely breathe
Just an empty impression
In the bed where you used to be
[Verse 2]
I want a kiss from your lips
I want an eye for an eye
I woke up this morning
To an empty sky
[Verse 3]
Empty sky, empty sky
I woke up this morning to an empty sky
Empty sky, empty sky
I woke up this morning to an empty sky
[Verse 4]
Blood on the streets
Yeah, blood flowing down
I hear the blood of my blood
Crying from the ground
[Verse 5]
Empty sky, empty sky
I woke up this morning to the empty sky
Empty sky, empty sky
I woke up this morning to the empty sky
[Verse 6]
On the plains of Jordan
I cut my bow from the wood
Of this tree of evil
Of this tree of good
[Verse 7]
I want a kiss from your lips
I want an eye for an eye
I woke up this morning
To the empty sky
[Verse 8]
Empty sky, empty sky
I woke up this morning to an empty sky
Empty sky, empty sky
I woke up this morning to the empty sky
[Verse 9]
Empty sky, empty sky
I woke up this morning to an empty sky
