empty space
( music/lyrics: n.dru )

i can still remember when
those days could last forever then
and i can still remember
your passion and your will
and as the days went on and on
like lyrics to forgotten songs
you faded oh so quickly
before you got your fill

so what streets do you wander now?
and who's around to show me how?
to convince me there's still meaning
the way you always could
please don't tell me you've given in
and don't tell me you've let them win
i've never seen them beat you down
and i never thought i would

so much promis
so much faith
so much gone wrong
gone to waste
just a clone now
another face
vacant complacent
empty space

i fear the day i watch you follow
with empty words and eyes so hollow
staring off to nowhere
with nothing to be said
like so many others stolen
desires burnt and minds all frozen
falling into perfect patterns
so mechanical, so dead

you had this way of saying things
you had this way of seeing things
nobody could explain them
quite like you used to do
all this time i thought you were strong
and you helped me to carry on
and all of this would be lost
on the day the world lost you
