Lyrics

Light Years

I've used hammers made out of wood
I have played games with pieces and rules
I've undeciphered tricks at 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 whereever you've gone, and whereever we might go
It don't seem fair, today just disappear
Your light's reflected now, reflected from afar
We were but stones, your light made us stars

With heavy breath, awakened regrets
Backpages and days alone 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
Aw, you gotta spend it all

And whereever you've gone, and whereever we might go
It don't seem fair, you seem to like it here
Your light's reflected now, reflected from afar
We were but stones, your light made us stars

And whereever you've gone, and whereever we might go
It don't seem fair, today just disappear
Your light's reflected now, reflected from afar
We were but stones, your light made us stars
