Empty Pavements

I found myself all alone again
People push me out of their lane
In the empty pavements, I sat
I sat, with the time, I rot

How useless could I be?
Why can't people understand me?
I just wanted to live happily
Moving and breathing freely

I am indeed a castaway
I was always out of their way
Eaten be grief and sorrow
My soul once full now hollow

The emptiness of my soul is what kills me everyday
People just took its contents and thrown it away
Heart's been broken and shredded
Life, to the oblivion, twas' faded

No one accepted me except from those empty pavements
They were with me in my lament
We shared the sorrow I once have
Now my load's been swept under the rug

I found comfort under the emptiness
I sought happiness despite the sadness
I took refuge in that lonesome road
And walked its path leaving every load

I don't want to anyone to see me here
Hiding and living in fear
I gaze to the starless night sky
And wished I'll just pass by
