Go to the Empire State and watch the city lights
Hear the noise of millions struggle in the sprawl
Stare into the sky we're few and far between
Black eyes full of stars wide with memoriesEvery street I ever walked
Every home I ever had is lost
Every flower I ever held
Every spring I ever had has driedEvery man I ever knew
Every woman I ever had is gone
Everything I ever touched
Every thing I ever had has died
Lie down in the park and watch the satellites
Hear the children sing just a breath away
Dance in the heavy air along the Interstate
Black lung full of fumes choke on memoriesEvery street I ever walked
Every home I ever had is lost
Every flower I ever held
Every spring I ever had has driedEvery man I ever knew
Every woman I ever had is gone
Everything I ever touched
Every thing I ever had has diedEvery street I ever walked
Every home I ever had is lost
Every flower I ever held
Every spring I ever had has dried
Every man I ever knew
Every woman I ever had is gone
Everything I ever touched
Every thing I ever had has died
