Sleeping alone at night  
In an empty house 
No one can hear your lonely sigh 
The walls are wide and claustrophobic 
Where will you go? 
To drown your sorrows 

The phone never rings 
The shadow of the night 
Permeates the empty space 
Where emotion once reside 

There was a time of colour 
And cheerful faces now like dust 
All becomes black and white 
Catatonic 
Like the sundial 
Shifting time 

Another day is all in motion 
Spring leaves to fall
