Empty Words
I've listened to a lot of shallow words in my life
Words of empty meanings
Words that just Past time
Words that spark emotions
And words that mean nothing at all
I've listened to a lot of talk in my life
Talks about future events
Talks about things people want to do
None of those talks added up
None of those talks made a difference
I've listened to a lot of flam in my life
Flam about where people want to be
Flam about what their expectations are
Flam about what they expect of you
And flame about how they love you
Empty promises
Forgotten dreams
Morage of hope
Like Water in the desert
It doesn't last long
