An Empty Shell - Royal Hunt

I saw you all around the place — a sure, solid bet:

No heart, no soul… a common face, as cold as you can get

Without a clue, without a cause

You’re moving forward just because

It’s in your blood, cuz otherwise you’re just an

Empty shell

Behind that almost perfect mask —

No feelings, no remorse

Remember: time is running fast

The sound of closing doors

Is getting louder every day.

No use to look another way —

You never had a real name, you’re just an

Empty shell

The end is near — so unavoidable and rude —

I guess you’re dwelling on the past Whatever happens here

Is easy understood:

You’re never meant to last, you’re never gonna last
