“Empty Love” by Gracey & Ruel

Lyrically “Empty Love” is deceptively-complex. But it seems that the singers (Gracey and Ruel) are speaking to the concept of interacting with a romantic interest primarily via social media. And what they are saying is that ultimately such relationships tend to be relatively unfulfilling. Yet due to already living less-than-ideal lives from an emotional standpoint, they are still willing to engage in an “empty love”.

And that is to say that whereas said romance may be “shallow”, it is still better than having no one to love, so to speak.

“Gimme love, gimme love, gimme love
Empty love, empty love”
