Empty Streets Songtext
von Broken Town

You walk on down the street
In the place that you called home
Same old faces that you meet
Never growing old

Cos we′re never standing still
It's changing all the time
This feeling makes me ill
I didn′t spot the sign

When all is said and done
They've taken it all away
Left us with an empty street
Where no one comes to play
In the shadow of a bombed out church
There she goes to pray
Now she's given the game away


These empty streets
Fallen silent now
No one left you see
These empty streets
In this broken town
It′s just killing me

Your house all boarded up
And the place is falling down
Once proud and standing tall
Was the talk of the town

When all is said and done
They′ve taken it all away
Left us with an empty street
Where no one comes to stay
In the shadow of the bombed out church
Kneeling down to pray
Cos she's living from day to day

Now all is said and done
And there′s nothing left to say
They left us with this empty street
And no one had their say
In the shadow of the bombed out church
No one's left to pray
You couldn′t help but fade away
