This house is empty
There's no one home
a train passes by in the distance to some other town
wish i could go too
to some other place
where the faces all set with the sunlight along with your name
Wash the dirt from off your hands say your grace
place them back in the soil
watch the flowers decay
for i am just one man and I've given everything
All i can give
to shake hands with the blind
to wrench every last grain of salt form an ailing mine
time after time
day after day
from the walls of a most empty house hear this timber call out for the train
In the house where all the echoes dig their graves
such a sad, sad fate
I could hardly explain
for I am just one man and I've given everything
For I am just one man and I've given everything
Place your hands in the soil
watch the whole world decay
for I am just one man and I've given everything
such as sad, sad fate
I could hardly explain
for I am just one man and I've given everything
