Coming Up Empty


Questioning life for all its worth...
...and coming up empty
Looking for hope and the futures birth...
...and coming up empty

Searching for meaning amidst the strife
Searching for truth in a world of pain
Searching for peace instead of war
Searching for love despite the game

Questioning only results in more
Conflicting concepts confuse and pollute
Truth elusively slips through my grasp
Answers are fleeting and thoughts rendered mute

I try, but I'm
   coming up empty
I'm searching, but
   coming up empty
I want answers, but I'm
   coming up empty

I just keep coming up empty
