|
It's empty now, no friendly face |
|
And nothing lives within |
|
I look around and I find no trace |
|
To tell me what has been |
|
So far I've come to find |
|
There's no one here, no life I fear |
|
I came for nothing, they have gone |
|
And nobody's home, no one's home |
|
I came to learn, perhaps to teach |
|
But I can tell somehow |
|
The world that I was sent to reach |
|
Has got no future now |
|
Across the galaxy to spread the word |
|
And no one heard |
|
I came for nothing, I'm alone |
|
And nobody's home, no one's home |
|
A requiem was never sung |
|
No elegy was read |
|
No monument was carved in stone |
|
In memory of the dead |
|
For those who made this place |
|
Do not remain, they feel no pain |
|
A stranger fate was never known |
