Coming Up Empty
Blackbird in the night backwards in the sky
Flying through the night
Spinning in the time looking for a home
Looking for a place
Looking for a branch or a leaf or a trace
Silent in the night spiral out of sight
Shooting through the sky
Diving through the ice
Blackbird in the night way above the sea
Piercing through the stars
Find your way to me
Coming up empty surround my sound
And nothing's left high def
I'm okay with it i got nothing to say
No place to be other than right where I am
I'm okay with it coming up empty
And I searched and dug deep
Give up just can't squeeze
Chasing a feeling for all of these years
Ascribing this meaning
To make depth and dimension or
Retire and ride out on my past inventions
We been through a lot up on that mountain top
Some survived some couldn't handle the pain
Jumping off the train before you had
A chance to hear the rain
Fizzle on the windowsill
Drizzle on the window pane
Now you got that widow chill
Now you got that widow pain
More frigid than an icicle
Colder than a winters day
Riding on your bicycle all around BK
Coming up empty surround my sound
And nothing's left high def
I'm okay with it i got nothing to say
No place to be other than right where I am
I'm okay with it coming up empty
