Empty Wind

The rivers wide For all those that cried This winding trail goes nowhere For those that don't care Looking down I see a town Looking around No one walks that ground Fear to try Fear to cry Sometimes leaves an empty heart Makes one seem so apart Stars at night What a sight Lonely as I One may cry Others ask why Sail on empty wind Go where it may send Who can say Which is the right way Sometime past some tommorow With the world living in sorrow Trying to reach For what they preach Lost in the word Of what they once heard Reaching for yesterday When they could still play What did they say To make you this way Can no one know How the lonely can grow Find the soul Does it have no goal Did you leave it all behind When you did find Life is hard you can sometimes get Jared That's the way it always goes And yes it shows The pain in your eyes So many lies Time flies Yesterday was bad Left you sad Afraid to try You must ask why Rewind What's left behind You must find Take it back Jack
