Analysis of Waking up without you



I open my mind to sad songs
I open my eyes to a silent bed
I open my phone to a blank screen
I open my kitchen to plane cupboards
I open my house to a white sky
I open my earth to a still heart
I open my galaxy to a vacant heaven
I open my memory and see our future earth
