Empty House Lyrics

Glinting gems in the concrete I paved
One every couple of feet
They got mixed up in the line and the sand
Nobody noticed but me
How could one little speck
Make a difference to the rest
Well it doesn't, no one cared
Except me

I payed my debt to the hotel unknown
I drove so far that I found
They kept me up, a family untied
I shared their wall and their secret

I can tell you this much
There is no love when they crutch
Just an empty gutted house
In a grave
I got this limp from a favor I did
Some folks don't like charity
Copper pipe is worth more than you'd think
There ain't no point blaming me

How could one little speck
Make a difference to the rest
Well it doesn't, no one cared
Except me
How could one little speck
Make a difference to the rest
Well it doesn't, no one cared

How could one little speck
Make a difference to the rest
Well it doesn't, never will
Just like me
