Carrying luggage for a trip I'm not on
The peacemaker said, "Could we get along?"
But neither one reaches out
It gives them something to fight about
Talking in rhythm and trying to rhyme
The timekeeper can't keep with time
And when the sand all runs out
There'll be nothing to fight about
And that's why it would be a sin
To fail before we begin
So I'll try to give a little more
Just know my empty cup won't pour
Been looking up, but can't see the sky
Been living with one closed eye
And when the other opens up
I might not have this empty cup
'Cause we're getting nowhere
When we're standing here
Traveling far but don't feel near
And when the train runs off the track
We know there's no coming back
And that's why it would be a sin
To fail before we begin
So I'll try to give a little more
But just know my empty cup won't pour
And that's why it would be a sin
To fail before we begin
So I'll try to give a little more
But just know my empty cup won't pour
And that's why it would be a sin
To fail before we begin
So I'll try to give a little more
But just know my empty cup
My empty cup won't pour
Won't pour, won't pour, won't pour
