Lyrics for Loss

We make the music that divides you It's handed down as a thing to cry to And all my wars they treat you kindly There's nothing more important that i see There was a time when all was empty Unorganized a clog a death scene Things opened up and there's so many Paths to walk ports of entry Now that I'm gone Now that i'm long gone This minute has come and gone I never said to do anything but forget me I can't be lost I've learned everything form loss For what's gained there's an inner cost I won't pay it i never would ♪ We left the seasons back in Long Town There was a hint of sadness going round We met the brothers who drove arrows And shot assumptions wide and narrow I know i mean what i'm forgetting We give for everything we're getting A lot that hasn't been put away It's building up for that fateful someday Now that i'm gone Now that i'm long gone This minute has come and gone I've never said to do anything but forget me When it seems i'm around Check again what's up and what's down And the silences make a sound Before the equation and i'm the answer Oh na na na na na na Oh na Oh na na na Na na na na na Oh na Oh na Na na na na na Oh na oh na nana ♪ Na na na na na na Oh n na nana na na
