Lyrics

Silence greets the morning
And bids the night goodbye
You feel an aching emptiness
It hollows out the sky
The howlin' wind picks up the dust
Of ages gone before
And now the ones you used to love
Don't live here anymore

The dessert, it won't let you
Stay and rest too long
'Cause man, it gets so lonly here
Even the ghosts have gone
Now ask yourself one question
What did you come here for?
When you knew the ones you used to love
Don't live here anymore

Your house has finally fallen
Your legacy has flown
The shadowed hills are callin'
From this valley they say you are goin'

The circle has been broken
The die, it has been cast
The road that you have chosen
Is bound to be your last
Now get back on the highway
And don't come round no more
'Cause now the ones you used to love
Don't live here anymore
Now the ones you used to love
Don't live here anymore
