Empty Words Lyrics

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 cryin' 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

Meaning of Empty Words

“Empty Words” is a raw and desolate reflection on heartbreak and the futility of trying to win back someone who’s moved on. Corey Kent paints a picture of utter despair, detailing how repeated apologies and desperate pleas have been met with indifference – “she don't wanna hear from me.” The song explores the corrosive effect of broken trust, suggesting that constant empty promises have warped reality until even truth sounds fabricated. He’s trapped in a cycle of self-blame, acknowledging he "got what I deserved," symbolized by being alone in an empty bed. The repeated plea to Mr. Webster for a “sorry” highlights the desperate need for validation and remorse, yet it's clear those words are ultimately meaningless. The core message is one of disillusionment; she’s moved beyond empty words, leaving him stranded with the painful realization that his efforts were in vain, consumed by the weight of lost love and regret.
