Empty Handed

Shovel in my hand
Hand across my heart
Walk along the land
To tear the ground apart
The earth beneath me crumbles
But I am just a man
Burning all my bridges
Coming back with empty hands

Caving with the pressure
Of the world upon my back
I might have learned my lesson
But I'm never looking back
The air around me thickens
For I am but a child
Losing all my visions
Coming back with empty eyes

Bury my heart with you my love
And I'll bury my head in my hands
I'll build up an underground kingdom, love
A castle that forever stands

I'll Bury my heart with you my love
If you give this life up you'll understand

Shovel in my hand
Nothing in my chest
There's nothing in my head
The nothing that you left for me
Everything you took
Every laughter, the whole Earth shook
Everything you took
And with laughter the whole Earth shook

Shovel in my hand
Nothing in my chest
There's nothing in my head
The nothing that you left for me
Everything you took
Every laughter, the whole Earth shook
Everything you took
And with laughter the whole Earth shook
