Truth's Empty Promise
Lyrics
Clark flew a lot in the old days He was a fixer, of sorts Invested in the good old ways More than the sum of his parts
In every town he'd ask around "In what do you believe?" The answers shared a common sound Truth and Justice, God and Country
He had a box of memories And labeled it as Me He filled it full of certainties But, still, the box stayed empty
Nothing's gonna set him free Truth's Empty Promise - Change Eternally
Now Clark has mostly gone to ground There's just too much needs fixing Endless voices ever louder He is witness, not believing
He can't help thinking "Where'd it go?" "That sense that we were us." Once we, then me, now hollow As his Sunday suit gathers dust
He had a box of memories And labeled it as Me He filled it full of certainties But, still, the box stayed empty
Nothing's gonna set him free Truth's Empty Promise - Change Eternally
He had a box of memories And labeled it as Me He filled it full of certainties But, still, the box stayed empty
Nothing's gonna set him free Truth's Empty Promise - Change Eternally
