I've been talking to the walls
'Bout how to get her back
And they told me I should call
But she hit "read" on that

She don't wanna hear from me
What she's heard a thousand times
If you bend it long enough
Even the truth sounds like a lie

She's over empty words
Half-hearted apologies
My broken promises
My "don't give up on me"s

No goodbye when she left
I got what I deserved
I'm in this empty bed
'Cause she's over empty words

Hey there, Mr. Webster
Could you make a couple more?
'Cause I could really use a "sorry"
That I ain't used on her before

I guess them sweet nothings don't mean nothing now
Been crying wolf so much that she don't wanna hear me howl

She's over empty words
Half-heart apologies
My broken promises
My "don't give up on me"s

No goodbye when she left
I got what I deserved
I'm in this empty bed
'Cause she's over empty words

She's over empty words
Half-hearted apologies
My broken promises
Oh, my "don't give up on me"s

No goodbye when she left
I got what I deserved
I'm in this empty bed
'Cause she's over empty words
