The Void

from Not A Proper Girl by Kate Owen

/

about

'The Void' Explores the nature of insanity, deep grief and other intense emotions and the desire that when we fall into the void of these emotions we need human comfort. We crave someone to be there for us in our darkest moments, but that they need to be prepared to come with us into that dark place to truly stand by our side. The question ‘if I fall will you carry me down to the void’ also challenges the relationships strength. How willing is another person to see our darkness? Will they accompany us down to the void?

lyrics

The Void
Music and Lyrics by Kate Owen

VERSE 1
You’re always leaning down 
Eyes melt away the ground 
Pulls me down

She never screams out loud
Doesn’t even make a sound
Holds it in
 
CHORUS 1
And if I fall will you carry me 
Down the void 
And if I fall will you carry me 
Down the void 
 
Ooooooo x2

VERSE 2
You’ve always love the dark 
Clothes all black velvet  
Wears me down 

He never takes it off
A cloak black and soft
Keeps her warm

CHORUS 2
And if I fall will you carry me 
Down the void 
And if I fall will you carry me 
Down the void 
 
Ooooooo x2

BRIDGE
Lined with moss and burned with time
And so far down x 2

CHORUS 3
And if I fall will you carry me 
Down the void 
And if I fall will you carry me 
Down the void 

Ooooooo x2

Hey ay yay
