Lyrics
It's empty now, no friendly face
Expressing emptiness, absence of familiar faces.
And nothing lives within
Describing a lifeless environment with nothing alive.
I look around and I find no trace
Searching for any sign or evidence of the past.
To tell me what has been
Unable to find information about what happened.
So far I've come to find there's no one here
Realizing the lack of presence of others.
No life I fear
Feeling a sense of fear in the absence of life.
I came for nothing, they have gone
Arrived with expectations but everyone is gone.
And nobody's home
Highlighting the solitude, emphasizing nobody's home.
No one's home
Reiterating the emptiness and absence of anyone.
I came to learn, perhaps to teach
Arrived with the intention to learn or teach.
But I can tell somehow
Sensing that the world intended for outreach has no future.
The world that I was sent to reach
Perceiving a lack of purpose or potential in the world.
Has got no future now
Expressing despair over a seemingly hopeless situation.
Across the galaxy to spread the word
Traveled across space to share a message, but unheard.
And no one heard
Describing the isolation and lack of reception.
I came for nothing, I'm alone
Reiterating the arrival with no purpose or company.
And nobody's home
Emphasizing the continued absence of anyone.
No one's home
Repeating the theme of an empty, uninhabited space.
A requiem was never sung, no elegy was read
Reflecting on the absence of ceremonies or tributes.
No monument was carved in stone in memory of the dead
No acknowledgment or memorial for those departed.
For those who made this place do not remain, they feel no pain
Explaining that the creators of the place are gone.
A stranger fate was never known
Describing an unusual and unfamiliar fate.
