lyrics

Glimpses of a war I never fought
Abandoned memories with no one to recall
Not much left to do but moving on
No matter where I go I walk an empty road
See the seasons coming
See the seasons go
My heart's so tired of freaks but I don't let it show

Silent as a desert
Traveling by night
I'll rather be a ghost than crushed by city lights

Empty roads I keep hanging on
What's the score
No one ever takes you home
All I own
is another empty road
soon to be cold
when I'm gone

Thinking 'bout the times I wasn't there
Another lonely face buried in empty space
Got a million friends I never met
Sometimes we make it sometimes we just lose our breath
Words are made of distance
That I know for sure
We hardly recognize our voices as we stroll
Baby don't you worry
All the blood is mine
A drought's been in my eyes for more than thousand miles

Empty roads
I keep hanging on
What's the score
No one ever takes you home

All I own
is another empty road
soon to be closed
when I'm gone

Not much left to do but moving on
A raincoat and a shadow, well I guess that's all
