"Empty Words" is a song I wrote back in 2017 during a family vacation in Iran. I didn't have much to do back then, and naturally, a lot of old memories and feelings tend to resurface whenever you have a lot of time on your hands. A lot of friendships don't work out because friends tend to turn into rivals if their interests are too much alike. That's what I've experienced a few times, and it's pretty sad whenever I remember the unfortunate things that could have been avoided if both parties had acted more grown-up back then.
Music / Lyrics / Piano: Neliya

This song is all about toxic friendships/relationships. A lot of friendships don't work out because friends end up turning into rivals due to their deep-rooted insecurities. That's what I've experienced several times in the past, and I feel pretty sad whenever I remember the unfortunate happenings that could have been avoided if both parties had acted more grown-up and less immature and cold.

Ease the pain
That won't go away
Help me out
I don't know what to say
Anger surging through my veins
I never understood what’s in your brain
No one knows my worth, but I don't care
Anymore
Anymore...
Someday I will show them all the pain
That I’ve endured
That I've endured...
Empty words with no meaning
Never showing your true motives
You have never cared to bother
To tell the reason for your pain
‘Cause you are just afraid...
Long ago
We used to get along
But then we grew up and then parted ways
Friendship lost its meaning ‘cause
Jealousy’s what’s killed it in the end
No one knows my worth, but I don't care
Anymore
Anymore...
Someday I will show them all the pain
That I've endured
That I've endured...
Empty words with no meaning
Never showing your true motives
You have never cared to bother
To tell the reason for your pain
‘Cause you are just afraid...
There’s a god above who knows
What’s inside your head when you act cold
It probably makes you feel good,
To stomp on people’s pride and see them lose
Empty words with no meaning
There's only hatred left instead
'Cause you have never cared to bother
To tell the reason for your pain
‘Cause you are just afraid...
