"Way Beyond Empty" lyrics - ZAKK WYLDE

If I could I surely would,
Child ease your pain
But if I could no longer,
Would you still know my name?

If I couldn't drain the tears,
That pour from these eyes,
Would you turn your back on me?
Would you wave goodbye?

Leave me way beyond empty inside
Awaiting my last day to arrive
Way beyond empty inside
Awaitin' my end to arrive

I couldn't be the shoulder,
Which your head would rest upon
Would you still be waiting, mama?
Or would you be gone?

If I couldn't keep the smile,
Forever on your face,
Would I still be around?
Or would I be replaced?

Yeah, way beyond empty inside
Awaiting my last day to arrive, yeah
Way beyond empty inside
Awaitin' my end to arrive, Oh-oh...
Oh-ooh... Oh-ooh... Oh-ooohh

And would you promise me,
That things they'd never change?
Could you promise me,
That things they'd stay the same?

If I couldn't clear the clouds,
From over your head,
Would you keep your word to me?
Amongst all the things you said?

Or leave me way beyond empty inside
Awaiting my last day to arrive, yeah
Way beyond empty inside... Oh-ohoh
Awaitin' my last day to arrive, oh yeah child
