All these people you once thought
are on their way to the top, though the road there is long
gone are all the ideals that once were
empty words are all that remains
My 70s heroes, where are they now
all those who were young and angry in 1977
soon you will be old and alone
for time gives and time takes
EMPTY WORDS , FULL THROATS
I SWALLOWED ALL THE LIES STRAIGHT OUT
EMPTY WORDS, FULL THROATS
YOU SPIT OUT AND I MADE NO DEMANDS
EMPTY WORDS, FULL THROATS
TIME IS GOING TOO FAST, I WANT TO JUMP OFF
EMPTY WORDS, FULL THROATS
Yesterday's TRUTH IS PURE LIES TODAY
I know, I should have understood
that sometimes words mean nothing
but when you laugh behind my back
I spit back
EMPTY WORDS, FULL THROATS
I SWALLOWED ALL THE LIES STRAIGHT
EMPTY WORDS, FULL THROATS
YOU SPIT OUT YOU AND I MADE NO CLAIMS
EMPTY WORDS, FULL THROATS
TIME GOES TOO FAST, I WANT TO JUMP OFF
EMPTY WORDS, FULL THROATS
Yesterday's TRUTH IS PURE LIES TODAY
You know I hate you
I know you mock me
for whatever happens now
we will all be like you
Who turns his back on his old self
who lived then and not today
but what is old and what is new
am I an adult or a child again
