lyrics

as I sit looking at the stars
marvelling at how we got this far
thinking how it's just another day

before the Black Hole gets us all
all we've built it's swallowed whole
it's like we never saw this place

and all the things we never did
they're still standing up ahead
but the world is empty
the slate is clean

it makes no odds
that you've joined the dots
cause our world is empty
the slate is blank

yet again I'm looking at the sky
but this time I'm wondering why
it's dark and cold
why do I feel so old?

I think it's that I'm where I'd go
all those 51 years ago
to write you letters
on how it could be better

and all those things we never did
they're still standing up ahead
but the world is empty
our slate is clean

it makes no odds
that you've joined the dots
cause our world is empty
our slate is blank

the slate, the slate, the slate is blank
and now I know we can't go back
our slate, our slate, our slate is blank
and now I know we can't go back

the slate, the slate, the slate is blank
and now I know we can't go back
our slate, our slate, our slate is blank
and now I know we can't go back

(the lights are out and I'm so scared
of what I'll do when you're not there
the lights are out and I'm so scared
of what I'll do when you're not there)
