No click in my heels No swagger in my step No light in my eye No life in my breath Empty as empty A hole filled with nothing So much nothing Has got to be something No wine in my glass No smoke in my bowl No needle in my vein No pills to swallow Empty as empty A hole filled with nothing So much nothing Has got to be something No story on the screen No music in the speakers No freshness in my sheets No blinking from my blinker Empty as empty A hole filled with nothing So much nothing Has got to be something No words on the page No mess on the floor No meal in the oven No muse......no ****** Empty as empty A hole filled with nothing So much nothing Has got to be something No truth in my smile No silver lining on the cloud No joy in my spirit No peace for my brow Empty as empty A hole filled with nothing So much nothing Has got to be something Yet the emptier I get The deeper I feel A large open space Truth is revealed Empty as empty A hole filled with nothing So much nothing Has got to be something

Empty As Empty
No click in my heels No swagger in my step No light in my eye No life in my breath Empty as empty A hole filled with nothing So much nothing Has got to be something No wine in my glass No smoke in my bowl No needle in my vein No pills to swallow Empty as empty A hole filled with nothing So much nothing Has got to be something No story on the screen No music in the speakers No freshness in my sheets No blinking from my blinker Empty as empty A hole filled with nothing So much nothing Has got to be something No words on the page No mess on the floor No meal in the oven No muse......no ****** Empty as empty A hole filled with nothing So much nothing Has got to be something No truth in my smile No silver lining on the cloud No joy in my spirit No peace for my brow Empty as empty A hole filled with nothing So much nothing Has got to be something Yet the emptier I get The deeper I feel A large open space Truth is revealed Empty as empty A hole filled with nothing So much nothing Has got to be something
