[Verse 1]
|
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
|
|
(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)
|
|
[Hook]
|
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
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
Staring at the safety sleeve
|
These tingling feelings just won't leave
|
I can't sleep, anxiety dreams
|
I need a repreive, I need caffeine
|
Set the stage, my lips don't seem, [?]
|
Walking the streets, haunted by beats
|
Follow my lead by the loss that I bleed
|
Scream in the dark, but it's off key
|
Bow breaks in the powerful breeze
|
I hold my breath and the hours would freeze
|
'Til they tomorrows may bring
|
Squandered time didn't know you would leave
|
Part of me was lost in the sea
|
And the cost of these losses I found it in me
|
Replacing my friends [?]
|

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
