WHY IS THE STREET SO
EMPTY.
A quiet question about loneliness when the world keeps moving around you.

02 / THE SONG
A STREET WITH NO ANSWER.
Why Is The Street So Empty sits inside the strange loneliness of being surrounded by people and still feeling unseen.
The song asks for almost nothing — not rescue, not a miracle, just one person willing to stay and ask if everything is alright.
Some nights you don’t need answers.
You just need someone to sit beside you
and not look away.
Why do I feel more lonely
With every passing day
When I have given so much of me
And still feel far away
Why does the room get wider
When my heart begins to call
Why does the silence answer
Like it never cared at all
I’m not asking for a miracle
I’m not asking for the sky
Just one hand in the darkness
Just one voice asking why
Why must I carry everything alone
Every heavy stone
Every road unknown
Why is a friend so hard to find
When the night gets cold
And I’m tired in my mind
Why is the street so empty
When I step outside
Why does the world keep moving
While I break inside
I have been there for the broken
I have listened through the rain
I have held another’s sorrow
Like I understood their pain
But when my own knees tremble
When my own light gets thin
I look around for shelter
And the night comes walking in
I don’t need a perfect answer
I don’t need a holy sign
Just one soul to notice
I am running out of time
Why must I carry everything alone
Every heavy stone
Every road unknown
Why is a friend so hard to find
When the night gets cold
And I’m tired in my mind
Why is the street so empty
When I step outside
Why does the world keep moving
While I break inside
Maybe I have been too quiet
Maybe I smiled too well
Maybe no one saw the ocean
Underneath the shell
Maybe I kept saying “I’m fine”
Until they thought it was true
But I was waiting in the doorway
For someone to come through
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
I don’t need saving
I just need you around
Why must I carry everything alone
Every heavy stone
Every road unknown
Why is a friend so hard to find
When the night gets cold
And I’m tired in my mind
Why is the street so empty
When I step outside
Why does the world keep moving
While I break inside
If you hear me in this silence
If this song should reach your door
I am not asking for the whole world
Just a friend to ask once more
Are you alright?
Are you alright?
Are you alright tonight?
