break into pieces discard what’s left
scatter like ashes of the dead
let the wind do the rest
we go in search of the fragments and what we found
we stuck them down into a book of scrap
like pages from our past
we didn’t always know the words so we just hummed along
now the good times are all gone and I’m glad were moving on
I’ll see you in the next life, I’m sure it won’t be long
because every window closes and every door slams shut
I’m sorry you missed your moment but it’s time we all gave up
and we’ll join the nearly mens society
we’ll all go our separate ways, and we’ll all die quietly
because every windows broken and every door is locked
I’m sorry you missed your moment but it’s better late than never
we didn’t always know the words so we just hummed along
we lost all sense of direction with no maps to read
it didn’t come with instructions, no advice to heed
and if I’m still here in 2 years will you carry me to safety please
