Empty Prophet Lyrics

There was a time
When I smiled
There was a face
Face of a child
But now I'm all by myself
Can't you feel me, I'm crying for help
Empty prophet
When the world rode to war.....
Alone

I see an image
It beckons to me
And as to visit
Just won't let me be
But now some stranger seems
I really can't feel you, you're only in dreams
Empty prophet
With strange prayers to pray.....
Alone
My words are my blankets
I'm wrapped in statements
The chill of your name strips me bare
Here I stand worthless
No one's words or verses
Could give you a reason today

There comes a time
A time to reflect
Come face to face
Without savageness
Now I must realize that I'll live again today
I'll look into your eyes
Empty prophert
When the world rode to war.....
Alone

Lord, I don't want to be here all alone
These empty prophets
Lord, they won't let me be
Empty prophets
Keep me hanging on
Lord, I don't want to be here all alone
Somebody help me!
Empty prophets
