Nothing Left

I’ve bent steel bars

I’ve broken many chains

I’ve brought down tall walls

I’ve helped nations to change

I’ve gave life and I’ve laid them to rest

 But with you, I have nothing left

Wasted away a young man with a gift

Wore down like the rain, on garnet I guess

 Spend time with each child raised them my best

Worked my body to death

Held friends at my side

Strangers I bless

Help those in need

 But with you, I have nothing left

Wasted away a young man with a gift

Wore down like the rain, on garnet I guess

 From nothing to something, to holding the world

To caring for the sick

Tending for the old

Holding the hands of one who’s lost

Cheated death with a friend standing at the edge

Life’s abbes

 But with you, I have nothing left

Wasted my life away, a young man with a gift

Wore down like the rain, on garnet I guess

 Nothing more to say, nothing left to do

You’ve took it all from me

Hope is dead

I did what they said, again and again

I left it with my God He left it with you

 Nothing left

You left nothing left

 Ya, you left nothing left
