Yesterday there was a future
Yesterday there was a pot of gold
Yesterday there were dreams and visions
Yesterday there was a story to be told
But nothing stay forever and there’s no point of any plea
Today there’s nothing left to see.

The whole world fell to pieces
And there isn’t any cure
There are just wreckages of memories
And a thought of how to endure
But nothing stay forever and there’s no point of any plea
Today there’s nothing left to see.

No, today there’s nothing left to see
Today there’s nothing left to see
When your life don’t have a lock,
what’s the point of any key?
Today’s there’s nothing left to see.

Time to raise your weary head now
Time to fill your empty tank
Time to look for unknown roads
So your map won’t stay blank
Cause nothing stay forever and there’s no point of any plea
Today there’s nothing to see.

The sun has sent plenty of rays
Made your darkest hours a bit more bright
Makes our planet a somewhat decent place
Makes our daily strives more light.
Do we all feel this emptiness or is it only me?
’cause today there’s nothing to see

No, today there’s nothing left to see…
