The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Empty" by the artist "Trevor Daniel"

In the song "Empty", Trevor Daniel sings about a girl who only seeks his attention and affection when she feels lonely. She calls him when her "cup is empty" (most likely referring to alcohol) and when her "bed is empty".

The lyrical hero is tired of such superficial and selfish relationships. He feels "empty" after each of their encounters because he understands that for her it's just a way to fill the void, not a sincere desire to be with him.

He tells her directly that he needs something more than just physical intimacy. He wants real love and a deep connection, which are obviously missing in their relationship. Eventually, the hero decides to break this vicious circle and move on, no longer wanting to waste time on empty encounters.

You only call when the cup's empty

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You only call when your bed's empty

So do you ever think it's

Time we stop pretending

That these late nights don't leave us empty?

Empty, empty, yeah, yeah

I don't wanna feel

Empty, empty, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

So do you ever think it's

Time we stop pretending

That these late nights don't leave us empty?

Tell me what you want, tell me what you need

Used to love it when you'd call, now, I don't feel a thing

Another night, another one, 'nother repeat

Come kick it for awhile, just to watch you leave

Done with shallow nights, I'm diving off the deep end

Tired of treading water, I'm moving forward, tryna swim

Wanna feel something, baby, cut the loose ends

I don't got the time to wait for you to call again

Okay, I can tell you just want company

I can tell you don't mean a word you say

I'm looking for substance, you don't feel the same, no

You only call when the cup's empty

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You only call when your bed's empty

So do you ever think it's

Time, we stop pretending

That these late nights don't leave us empty?

Empty, empty, yeah, yeah

I don't wanna feel

Empty, empty, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

So do you ever think it's

Time, we stop pretending

That these late nights don't leave us empty?

I won't do this over again

Said at least a thousand times that this was the end

And trust me, 'cause I swear to God, I'm not giving in

Nothing you could do to change my mind about this, no

Baby, let's be honest, it ain't love if we're numb

I really need something deeper than what we've got

When you hit me up and I'm ignoring every call

Take it as a hint that I don't want to be involved

I'd rather be alone than be with you

You don't love me, you just hate sleeping alone

And, baby, we both know, we're not on the same page

So we need to go our separate ways

You only call when the cup's empty

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You only call when your bed's empty

So do you ever think it's

Time, we stop pretending

That these late nights don't leave us empty?

Empty, empty, yeah, yeah

I don't wanna feel

Empty, empty, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

So do you ever think it's

Time, we stop pretending

That these late nights don't leave us empty?
