[Light years]


Light years
I've used hammers 
made out of wood 
I have played games 
with pieces and rules 
I've undeciphered 
tricks of the bar 
but now you're gone 
I haven't figured out why 
I've come up with riddles 
and jokes about war 
I've figured out numbers 
and what they're for 
I've understood feelings 
and I've understood words 
but how could you be taken away? 
and wherever you've gone 
and wherever we might go 
it don't seem fair 
today just disappears 
you're light reflected now 
reflected from afar 
we work by stones 
you're light made of stars 
with heavy breath 
awaken the crowds 
back pages and days 
around that could have been spent 
together but we were miles apart 
every inch between us 
becomes light years now 
no time to be void 
or save up on life 
but youve gotta spend it all 
and wherever youve gone 
and wherever we might go 
it dont seem fair 
you seem to light year 
youre lifes reflected now 
reflected from afar 
we work by stones 
your life made of stars 
and wherever youve gone 
and wherever we might go 
it dont seem fair 
today just disappears 
your lives reflected now 
reflected from afar 
we work by stones 
your life made of stars
