Things are not the same no matter how you look at it

Everyone moves on seeming to forget

I know you know I'd even let you know I know

We've always been able to conduct symphonies

With sticks and fingers a dance with seamless rhythm

From uncertain start to the dissonant now

There's something wrong and I can't find what's been broke, cogs stopped rust built its empire

I wish I had all the right words to say

But they have long lost their meaning

Things are not the same no matter how you look at it

Everyone moves on seeming to forget

I know you know I'd even let you know I know

We've always been able to conduct symphonies

With sticks and fingers a dance with seamless rhythm

From uncertain start to the dissonant now

How can you try with no goal in mind

No solution in sight

I felt nothing when you walked out the door and I haven't since, I don't pretend anymore

I don't lie to myself

A father once is a father forever

And a brother lost is a friend left in days remembered

But a father is all you will ever be

And you've lost all that you've gained and I've never felt more alive
