  • And all the pictures on the wall
    Serve only to remind you of it all
    The wasted days we could have lived
    Now we're left with nothing left to give
    There was a time I really loved you
    But when that was I just can't say
    As all the memories merge into one
    As each day becomes each day

    The clock hands ticking on the wall
    Are just reminders of it all
    The wasted days we could have lived
    Now we're left with nothing left to give

    We used to meet each others' eyes
    And that's all we'd have to say
    Now we don't talk that much at all
    The further our eyes seem to stray

    And in a funny kind of way
    This empty room was full one day
    Full of love that we once shared, now it all looks so bare
    The silent walls whose cracks I feel,
    But is there room to let the hatred heal? Writer/s: PAUL JOHN WELLER
