The World Has Gone Away There's nobody in church. There's nobody in town. There's nobody at around at all. The streets are cold and bare. There's no-one walking there. There's nobody to care for anyone. The world has gone away and I was left behind. The world has gone away and I was left behind. Detectives don't detect. The litter goes unswept. The lawns remain unkept and ragged. The books are left unread. The speeches are unheard. The paintings undisturbed by eyes. The world has gone away and I was left behind. The world has gone away and I was left behind. Machines lie in their rust. The buildings die in dust. The windmills turn for just the crops. Now tigers walk the street where people used to meet and monkeys raid and eat from shops. The world has gone away and I was left behind. The world has gone away and I was left behind. |
