The black eye stares
But doesn't see
The crackhead floats
But he's never free
The fire is dark
Awaits the match
No ember to kindle
No flame to catch
I wish I'd something left to wish for
I wish I cared
I'd step over the edge for you
If I dared
The house lies silent
No piano plays
Not even the echo of yesterdays
Cold and empty
Reality thin
A home's just a building
When no one's in
I wish I'd something left to wish for
I wish I cared
I'd step over the edge for you
If I dared
