Light Years

I've used hammers made out of wood

I have played games with pieces and rules

I 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 wherever you've gone

And wherever we might go

It don't seem fair

Today just disappeared

Your light's reflected now

Reflected from afar

We were but stones

Your light made us stars

With heavy breath, awaken regrets

Back pages and days alone that could've 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

Oh, you gotta spend it all

And wherever you've gone

And wherever 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 wherever you've gone

And wherever we might go

It don't seem fair

Today just disappeared

Your light's reflected now

Reflected from afar

We were but stones

Your light made us stars
