Empty House Lyrics
Glinting gems in the concrete I paved
One every couple of feet
They got mixed up in the lime and the sand
Nobody noticed but me
How could one little speck make a difference to the rest?
Well it doesn't, no one cared except me
I paid my debt to the hotel unknown
I drove so far out of funds
They kept me up, a family untied
I shared a wall and a secret
I can tell you this much
There is no love when bankrupt
Just an empty, gutted house and a grave
I got this limp from a favor I did
Some folks don't like charity
Copper pipe is worth more than you'd think
There ain't no point blaming me
How could one little speck make a difference to the rest?
Well it doesn't, no one cared except me
How could one little speck make a difference to the rest?
Well it doesn't, no one cared
How could one little speck make a difference to the rest?
Well it doesn't, never will, just like me
One every couple of feet
They got mixed up in the lime and the sand
Nobody noticed but me
Well it doesn't, no one cared except me
I drove so far out of funds
They kept me up, a family untied
I shared a wall and a secret
There is no love when bankrupt
Just an empty, gutted house and a grave
Some folks don't like charity
Copper pipe is worth more than you'd think
There ain't no point blaming me
Well it doesn't, no one cared except me
Well it doesn't, no one cared
Well it doesn't, never will, just like me

Great song but I think some of the lyrics here are wrong. This is what I hear:
Glinting gems in the concrete I paved One every couple of feet They got mixed up in the lyme and the sand Nobody noticed but me
How could one little speck Make a difference to the rest Well it doesn't, no one cared Except me
I payed my debt to the hotel unknown I drove so far, out of funds They kept me up, a family untied I shared their wall and their secret
I can tell you this much There is no love when bankrupt Just an empty gutted house and a grave
I got this limp from a favor I did Some folks don't like charity Copper pipe is worth more than you'd think There ain't no point blaming me
How could one little speck Make a difference to the rest Well it doesn't, no one cared Except me
How could one little speck Make a difference to the rest Well it doesn't, no one cared
How could one little speck Make a difference to the rest Well it doesn't, never will Just like me
