Lyrics

[00:17.08] fightclub work
[00:17.99]
[00:20.11] I used hammers made out of wood
[00:24.78]
[00:25.58] I have played games with pieces and rules
[00:29.88] I deciphered tricks at the bar
[00:33.80]
[00:34.42] But now you re gone, I haven't figured out why
[00:38.91] I come up with riddles and jokes about war
[00:42.90]
[00:43.77] I figured out numbers and what they re for
[00:48.50] I understood feelings, and I understood words
[00:53.18] But how could you be taken away?
[00:55.19]
[00:58.05] And wherever you re gone, and wherever we might go
[01:06.51]
[01:09.88] It don't seem fair, today just disappeared
[01:15.08]
[01:16.58] Your light reflected now, reflected from afar
[01:25.09]
[01:28.53] We were but stones, your light made us stars
[01:34.41]
[01:44.95] The heavy breath, awakened regrets
[01:48.11]
[01:49.67] Backpages and days alone, that could have been spent
[01:54.22] Together, but we were miles apart
[01:58.89] Every inch between us becomes light years now
[02:02.76]
[02:03.45] No need to be void, or save up on life
[02:07.00]
[02:08.87] You got to spend it all
[02:12.74] And wherever you re gone, and wherever we might go
[02:21.26]
[02:25.07] It don't seem fair, you seemed to like it here
[02:30.76]
[02:31.44] Your light reflected now, reflected from afar
[02:39.73]
[02:43.29] We were but stones, your light made us stars
[02:49.47]
[03:36.26] And wherever you re gone, and wherever we might go
[03:44.58]
[03:48.32] It don't seem fair, today just disappeared
[03:53.58]
[03:54.83] Your light reflected now, reflected from afar
[04:02.15]
[04:06.58] We were but stones, your light made us stars
