Emptiness Is from Since Always by Andy Jenkins

At night when I am driving those old familiar roads
Summer turning next to me breathing soft and low
You might think you know it all and that you have a line
On getting anything you want
But all I want is mine

All morning when I’m sleeping, the dark is far away
Stirring up a ripple in the current of decay
Changes–slow and delicate–like sunshine fades a sign
The dust will cover what you want when what I want is mine

I walked into the kitchen
I walked into the room
I walked forth and back again
A shuttle on a loom
Another wall has crumbled
Look how the heavens shine
You cannot keep out emptiness
Emptiness is mine

Oh stand beside me pilgrim or sit beside my bed
Walk above the mountaintops or swim inside my head
Hold your shape together or let the thread unwind
Death might be the answer
But ain’t the question is fine
