Acoustic song

I wrote this one a while back as well, to be played on an acoustic guitar with no accompaniment. I never did name it, so if you can think of a name, that'd be great.

And I'll wait a while until posting another song, by the way. I don't want to overload the forum with my own crap.
-----------------------

It looks a bit like rain today
But no one's here to see the gray
They've left for home, their goodbyes spent
Their presence leaving just a dent

Apologies and a century
taped on the wall
History, finality
once and for all
Somewhere, a statue stares
out towards home
Somewhere, a statue's tear falls
Cold and alone

The streets are mute, the fire's dead
Mid-afternoon, the town is bled
The last few pack up what they brought
and leave their home to be forgot

Apologies and a century
taped on the wall
History, finality
once and for all
Somewhere, a statue stares
out towards home
Somewhere, a statue's tear falls
Cold and alone

Apologies and a century --
what's left to show?
History, finality
Cold and alone

ah, the requested other lyric. I like this one alot earth. Good job, nice images and you did well on coveying the subject matter. All in all a beautiful piece, would certainly go well with an acoustic sound.

I like this one, it's got good flow and nice images- and a great concept; somber. I love the chorus. "Somewhere, a statue's tear falls, cold and alone" VERY nice. You could call it 'Forgotten Regret' or 'Cold Tears' or something, that's kind of the emotion I got out of it. Anyway, yeah. Noice.
