Dinner Table

Happy Easter!! 🐇

Verse 1:

Do you sit behind a closed door
Waiting for it to open and see more
Do you ever wonder what lies below
All the secrets that he holds
Can you see a person with their scars
With no light just standing in the dark
Maybe you'll be able to finally see
What all he longs for, what he seeks

Chorus:

What is a dinner table with empty chairs?
What is a home without warmth, without love?
How do you live life if you live in fear?
Do you ever find it to be enough?
Can you solve every problem with an answer?
Do you still hurt without being bruised?
Can any lonely man with wealth be happier
If he has nothing to gain or lose?

Verse 2:

Even the wind plays its sad songs
Trying to find where it belongs
Yet the difference is that it is free
While he is still hiding from reality

He can't afford his happiness
It's been stolen
Can't you see it in his eyes
He's lost and broken
Look beyond the mask that he wears
Not one scar has been sewed in
Over the years, his heart continues to tear
But you still do nothin
Is there something you have against this fear
Or maybe it's something against him

Chorus:

What is a dinner table with empty chairs?
What is a home without warmth, without love?
How do you live life if you live in fear?
Do you ever find it to be enough?
Can you solve every problem with an answer?
Do you still hurt without being bruised?
Can any lonely man with wealth be happier
If he has nothing to gain or lose?

Bridge:

Does he ever stay up all night
Wondering if anyone cares
Do you wonder what it would be like
If someone filled a chair
No more lonely cold meals
Or a heart made of stone
Then you finally found your place
A place to call home

Chorus:

No more dinner tables with empty chairs
A home filled with warmth and love
No more living your whole life in fear
Then you'll always have enough
You can solve every problem with an answer
You don't need to hide anymore wounds
Any lonely man with wealth isn't happier
If he has nothing to gain or lose

Outro:

Betrayal at the end is only the beginning
But once you see the truth
You have to decide if he's a foe or family
It's all up to you
