go to the empire state and watch the city lights
hear the noise of millions struggle in the sprawl
stare into the sky we`re few and far between
black eyes full of stars wide with memories
every street I ever walked
every home I ever had
is lost
every flower I ever held
every spring I ever had
has died
every man I ever knew
every woman I ever had
is gone
everything I ever touched
every thing I ever had
has died
lie down in the park and watch the satellites
hear the children sing just a breath away
dance in the heavy air along the interstate
black lung full of fumes choke on memories
every street I ever walked
every home I ever had
is lost
every flower I ever held
every spring I ever had
has died
every man I ever knew
every woman I ever had
is gone
everything I ever touched
every thing I ever had
has died
