Hollow out the empty path
          is it narrow (like yours)?
'You think nothing's wrong', you said
          and then you go go on your way

The same way as ours
The same way today
This same way devours
          everything

Funny how after all this time
          it's the same fucking game
You can still not know it all
          while knowing everything

Everything
          is yours and mine to hold
(if you want to)

Here is one that never fully sleeps
          at no fault of your own
Years of disillusion seek to fault
          and try to destroy

Everything
          that you and I will seek
to hold onto

Hollow out the empty path
          is it narrow (like yours)?
'You think nothing's wrong', you said
          and then you go go on your way

Just let it go by
Just usher it on
Just live without knowing
          worry
