No money in my pockets, no soles on my shoes.
No future lying before me, I've got nothing to lose.
No rings on my fingers, no golden watch on my wrist.
No shiny new car in front of a house that don't exist.
And you keep telling me 'bout all the things I should have done.
No home to return to, my friends have all run.
You want me to believe in myself when my goddess has gone.
And with her went my will to live or do anything else,
so tell me what I'm left here with, no love and no wealth.
And you keep telling me 'bout all the things I should have done,
and you keep telling me 'bout all the things I should have done.
When life's an empty concept, and nothing else remains,
you feel the truth inside you that all of all contains,
you ask yourself this question that in itself sustains,
you feel you know the reason why,
you feel you know the reason why
you haven't done all those things.
No job or promotion I could jeopardize.
The clothes that I'm wearing are another man's size.
No friends to support me, loneliness doesn't make you strong,
nothing to believe in, I can't tell right from wrong.
And you keep telling me 'bout all the things I should have done.
And you keep telling me 'bout all the things I should have done.
When life's an empty concept, and nothing else remains,
you feel the truth inside you that all of all contains,
you ask yourself this question that in itself sustains,
you feel you know the reason why,
you feel you know the reason why
you haven't done all those things.
And you keep telling me 'bout all the things I should have done,
and you keep telling me 'bout all the things I should have done.
When life's an empty concept, and nothing else remains,
you feel the truth inside you that all of all contains,
you ask yourself this question that in itself sustains,
you feel you know the reason why,
you feel you know the reason why
you haven't done all those things.
