The Signs and the Sighs of Emptiness

The waves slide down
On the crackblack shore
And the sea rolls on
Into emptiness

To love is to lose
And to lose is to die
All our meanings dissolve
Into emptiness

No flags now fly
In the weeping wind
The dry earth is covered
With emptiness

When I meet you again
I will wear only lies
As the signs and the sighs
Of emptiness

You believe in a creed;
You believe in a war. And you kneel at the altar Of emptiness

Hark, Hark, the dogs do bark
Pain is coming to town

When I meet you again
I will wear only lies
As the signs and the sighs
Of emptiness
Of emptiness
