Empty Stadium

Last night I saw a dream so vivid that I woke up sick
In an empty stadium, looking at the walls, seeing no exits
When I realize I'm alone, I've been singing so long and nobody hears it
And I'm standing on the stage just waiting for applause that'll never exist

Finally almost had it
Everything that I imagined
And everyone would finally love me
But would that ever be enough?
I never lied to be accepted
Now I hope I don't regret it
I put the work in and I waited
Don't wanna die underrated, oh

Then the lights too bright and it hurts my eyes, but it feels like bliss
In an empty stadium, looking at the walls, seeing no exits
When I realize I'm alone, I've been singing so long and nobody hears it
And I'm standing on the stage just waiting for applause that'll never exist

Last night I saw a dream so vivid that I woke up sick
In an empty stadium, looking at the walls, seeing no exits
When I realize I'm alone, I've been singing so long and nobody hears it
And I'm standing on the stage just waiting for applause
