Now I live, empty hearted
It came and went, now departed
Labors born of heartfelt joy
Left to rot, a broken toy

No word was said, no tear fell
Just escort to a living hell
Labors born of heartfelt joy
Left to rot, a broken toy

when you are young
that you will spend most
of your life alone
that there will not
