I looked into an empty canyon
Thought to myself what could I see?
Then it hit me with a vision
This is what it came to be
We've all done things that we ain't proud of
We're all living with regrets
But to me they're all so petty
It's better off just to forget
I stumbled across an empty beer can
A homeless citizen had drunk
I wondered in what way it was wasted
In what manor it had been sunk
My headphones echoed out the traffic
Hammersmith lights faded black
I was approached and asked for spare change
Near my recent new digs flat
I don't know, that it's gonna be so fine
What a journey
Oh what a journey
I bit my tongue while I was eating
I'd been sleeping in till ten
Left all my washing for a cleaning
Scrounging around at what I could find then
But over time I began to grow up
Got myself back in shape
New music in my system
New girlfriend at the gate
And I know, that it's gonna be so fine
What a journey
Oh what a journey
