1 Hollowed eyes an empty soul
 they wander day by day.
Broken battered torn apart,
 lives lost and thrown away.
Losing hope they walk the streets at night.
Wondering deep in the abyss,
She hides away from light,    
unsure or wrong and right.
Searching for a bit of hope,  
aimlessly they wander.

2 Society slowly crumbling down,
moral led astray.
This Concrete jungle's over thrown,
by death and the decay.
Can't you hear the children's cries at night?
Muffled  screams  
undying dreams
full of pain and strife
  the nightmare come to life
slowly falling from the ledge fragile glass it shatters 
fragile life is shattered

3,    if you care to  listen  to this haunted lullaby
death and hate  vengeance  scorned 
 an  eye for eye
 nations killing for an unseen god
pain and grief and and blood filled streets
trying to survive  
the path of sorrow lies 
 of broken alibis
all the lives it tore apart 
like nothing ever mattered 
nothing really matters.
Nothing even matters.
