Empty eyes and they are such lonely ones

Under city lights, you feel you're the only one

That's left alive, up and down the empty streets

No stars in your sky, nothing's where it used to be

Oh put some levity back into this life

Take the disillusion away

Put away the things that go bump in the night

That pull you under

Though it's denied, there's a lock on the embassy door

Inside, those who forgot what they went there for

Like a star with no sky waiting for a time and place

Or a poet run dry, no words for his line and space

Put some levity back into this life
