Empty Are the Roads To Nowhere - Sifting Through the Pieces

Love left lying against a dated wall Out there in the open Awaiting another shoe to fall Crystal beads of penance Dripping from the bowl Crosses to be mended Splinters take their toll Broke but not forgotten Where words wore fancy robes Homeless in a shelter Empty are the roads No fears nor tears Torn straight apart No sleep nor rest You failed the test Morning comes and Autumn leaves Children weep and Mothers grieve Families lost without a cause So take your bow here's your applause
