On Loss And Having |
It must have been a dream but it felt so real |
Saw the wounds, heard the screams, thought about your last meal |
How we ate like kings, how you led us all in grace |
How nobody had forseen what would soon take place |
And when everything went down |
The silence you left was the strangest sound |
Dangerous town but we all felt safe |
Cause we knew that you slept with the angels now |
Rumors keep coming in |
A few thousand missing you just like me |
People keep running into you |
I’ve got a feeling that you might be alive |
(Rat-a-tat-tat, bum bum bum bum |
It’s the sound of a gat and the sound of a drum |
But whatever you attach to is what you become |
One plus one, double horizontal line one) |
You might be alive |
(Rata tat tat, bum bum bum bum |
It’s the sound of a gat and the sound of a drum |
But whatever you attach to is what you become |
One plus one, double horizontal line one) |
This is not fair, this is not pure, this is not right |
Trust me, when it’s all over, you will see the light |
Live by the sword, die by the sword, but Jesus Christ |
We shot that motherfucker right between the eyes |
I offer these thoughts on loss and having |
You’re here but you’re not, you’re near but you’re not |
I offer these thoughts on loss and having |
You’re here but you’re not, you’re near but you’re not |
Standing at the safety sleeve |
These tingling feelings just won’t leave |
I can’t sleep, anxiety dreams |
I need a reprieve, I need caffeine |
Set the stage, my mise-en-scene |
My missing piece, I’ll be zombie |
Walking the streets, haunted by beats |
Who follow my lead by the loss that I bleed |
Scream at the dark, but it’s off key |
Bough breaks in this powerful breeze |
I hold my breath that the hours would freeze |
'Til they tomorrows may bring |
Squandered our time, didn’t know you would leave |
And a part of me was lost in the sea |
And the cost of this loss is: I found it in me |
It’s in the place where my friends and my neighbors used to be |
This is not fair, this is not pure, this is not right |
Trust me, when it’s all over, you will see the light |
Live by the sword, die by the sword, but Jesus Christ |
We shot that motherfucker right between the eyes |
I offer these thoughts on loss and having |
You’re here but you’re not, you’re near but you’re not |
I offer these thoughts on loss and having |
You’re here but you’re not, you’re near but you’re not |
