Unpeopled Space

Lyrics for Unpeopled Space

Ten years gone, was it worth it? Is the answer clear? And after all (and after all) Nothing's lost, when there's nothing When there's nothing there Whatever was (whatever will) We belong here now Unpeopled space Toils without complaint Obliterates as it reclaims Our work for work's sake We're useless in our way Clear the brush and push the paint Oh, what a laugh I'm not what I am When I'm drifting in between Standing dead and driving in rain The thought that remains Our bodies rise and fall Spawning, sprawling, lying down Oh, what a laugh Words fail, and they're failing And they fail me now The loss of all (the loss of all) Nothing's lost, when there's nothing When there's nothing there Whatever was (whatever will) Well, it won't now
