Empty

All the writing on the wall
I don't need it at all
all the signs are crystal clear
and I know just why we're here

there's no secret in the cards
'cause we know now who we are
and this day goes on and on
nothing's come and nothing's gone

     peace and plenty
     when your heart is empty
     nothing to add on
     to the fear that's gone
     peace and plenty
     finally empty

there's no message in the stars
we need no telling where we are
at time's end we'll still stand out
that's what the end of pain's about

and if the earth is full of holes
we will render what we stole
we'll surrender all the yield
in the freedom that we feel
