Blackery, Emma - Nothing Without You Lyrics






I've got shackles round my feet, they tie me to this place
They won't loosen up for love or money, or anything that's in between
They're telling me I'm not allowed to leave

You kept telling me that I should pack up just in case
'Cause you thought that I had better things in store
I couldn't do as I was told, so I told you I didn't love you anymore

But somehow you saw through it all
And you took out all the dark thoughts that I think
Now you don't return any of my calls
So I guess your heart was a one time thing

I wish I could take my time
And show you that I'll be fine
'Cause I would be nothing without you
Nothing without you

A couple hours into this long 13 hour drive
Its just me with the lights off and I think
I should've done better by you

Now I can feel the shackles burn their way into my skin
When I turn around and try to run away from all the dark thoughts
Cause now I have nothing to prove and no one to lose

And next time I'll do better
Cause if I make the same mistakes again

I wish I could take my time
And show you that I'll be fine
'Cause I would be nothing without you
Nothing without you

If I had the chance to say
"I'm sorry for how things changed,"
'Cause I would be nothing without you
Nothing without you

And you shaped me into who I wanted to be
And you made me take a look at myself and see

I wish I could take my time
And show you that I'll be fine;
Just think about how happy you could be

If I had the chance to say
"I'm sorry for how I changed,"
'Cause I would be nothing without you
Nothing without you

Blackery, Emma Nothing Without You Comments
  1. W.... C....

    Cute without you!!

  2. D.... ....

    I came across this after watching your videos with Dan. I really like it, you’re talented.

    Are you guys going to do videos together again at some point? I miss seeing those.

  3. R.... W....

    Nearly 3 years on and I still can’t stop listening 😩

  4. E.... 2....

    Emma honestly you’re so beautiful and I’ll be with you till the end of YouTube

  5. S.... ....

    🖤🖤🖤

  6. G.... T....

    This sounds like something ‘of monsters and men’ would make dont @me

  7. S.... ....

    *UNDERRATED* And I oop

  8. N.... C....

    Accidently paused at 0:53 and seen dodgey toe Lol

  9. N.... C....

    Why do I find Emma Blackery super hot!

  10. L.... ....

    I remember when this came out I litterally couldn't stop listening it.

  11. E.... G....

    Two years on. This song reminds me of when it was released and I listened to it on repeat. Kinda has a whole new meaning now. However it’s still a BOP and Emma still looks GREAT in this video

  12. W.... ....

    I love this song for many reasons so many I LOVE

  13. S.... :....

    People: Youtubers can’t sing

    Emma: *Hold my camera!*

  14. C.... T....

    @EmmaBlackery May I ask, if you wouldn't mind telling me, do you produce your tracks yourself, or do you have a producer that helps you produce them?

    I'm just interested. I think your tracks are wonderful, and you are obviously a good singer, and quite obviously a very good songwriter, but something's niggling me when it comes to the production and arrangement of your vocals.

    If you would be happy to work with a producer (who has worked with Kesha, Avril Lavigne, Andrea Corr, among others), then please drop me a line and let me know.

    Lovely song by the way! xx 😊💜

    C.... T....

    Depending on the track. Most of her commercial stuff is produced by professionals. Sometimes she has help from her friends or she does it herself.

  15. A.... L....

    I like this song but i feel like id be embarrassed if my friends caught me listening to it

  16. M.... �....

    Love this tbh

  17. E.... T....

    i think this is emma’s best song to date

  18. C.... A....

    how did we get from ''Nothing Without You'' to ''Cute Without You'' , it seems like Emma gets over somebody pretty quickly (well 2 years isn't that fast...)

    C.... A....

    Well, cute without you was made in a sponsored video

  19. I.... ....

    And now it’s nothing without ya

  20. W.... ....

    I wish I could sing this with you

  21. L.... ....

    Two years already? Damn. Still love this song and video :)

  22. p.... h....

    omg i forgot about this song

  23. t.... s....

    i could very easily see myself waking up to this in the morning for a playlist, its light, its kinda fun despite the lyrics, not to say i dont like the lyrics, just in a way its not a cheerful subject, you changed for the better partly due to a guy that you want back but cant get back

  24. A.... M....

    Idk if its just my headphones, but the music is too loud to hear her singing

  25. L.... W....

    This song is literally my confidence anthem

  26. �.... ....

    im coming back like 2 years after hearing this oh lordie

  27. R.... L....

    Tbh, this is my favorite Blackery video

  28. i.... m....

    All of her songs have the most generic lyrics, nonsensical music video concepts but, decent sound mixing.

  29. e.... r....

    At first i thought she had dark blue hair

  30. E.... O....

    Hey Emma dose singing loud help relieve stress???

  31. �.... �....

    Как наколки портят женщику,как зечка,сразу противно слегка,а так все круто!!!

  32. A.... B....

    Glad I'm not the only one who dances like an Aunt

  33. S.... S....

    I can't get over how gorgeous she is, but now I know she has a boyfriend.... Makes me sad she can't be my girlfriend where we could move to England 😭😢

  34. E.... F....

    i’m not usually into this type of music but this is actually awesome and really unique. also, as a brit myself, i love that emma keeps her accent when singing. anyway i know this came out over a year ago but i just rediscovered it and its a bop

  35. S.... ....

    ~Underrated~

  36. l.... t....

    I think this style suited her so much better

  37. M.... R....

    Oh how I miss this

  38. B.... I....

    You remind me of Paramore!!!




    That’s a good thing btw

  39. A.... ....

    I tried to sing the notes and the neighbors got mad at me

  40. J.... ....

  50. F.... ....

  52. E.... t....

    I love your voice in this song and the melody! ♡

  53. A.... L....

    holy crap, it's been a year already

  54. K.... ....

    From all the negativity I heard about your dancing, like, at least you seem to own it. I've seen music videos where the signer dances way worse but acts like they're the most talented and sexy person ever!

  55. A.... ....

  56. M.... M....

    Percy Jackson is better than this song 😁😁

  58. i.... ....

    Just watching you dance in that kitchen put a huge smile on my face! I've been watching your channel for a while but hardly listened to any of your songs. That was clearly a mistake. Thanks for being the person that you are :)

  65. z.... ....

    ❤️❤️❤️💞💞

  66. R.... G....

    Emma if you still read the comments on here I just want you to know you give me a reason to live every day I struggle with depression and I'll sometimes feel like my life is falling apart but your music helps repair those broken parts of my life giving me a reason to not give up on myself thank you so much ❤
