Phantom pains
From a missing friend
Feeding thoughts
Thoughts that never end
What did I do?
What didn't I do?
Here she is
Only in your head
Long gone fights
But they're never dead
What did I do?
What didn't I do?
cny time I'm stuck on what I did and didn't do
I just scan the distance for the next thing
What is the next thing for you?
The next thing
She often said that too
We were statues hiding under sheets collecting dust
She burst through the door and shouted, “Next thing!”
Come to the next thing
Calliope
She's the way to be
Facing out
Finding ways to see
Beyond what's dead
Reaching ahead
Yeah, that was her
c meteor
c blazing star
Then she was no more
What did I do?
What didn't I do?
You can be the guy who Just stays clinging to his kin
Closing all his shutters but The next thing
c foreign army sweeps in
But I've tried
Never with me
We haven't tried
Then, let's see
clways knew that you would come around
That hidden voice
Will always play
It's on a loop
It'll always say
What did I do?
What didn't I do?
It's a song
You can't erase
But you can make
c tiny space
For something new
The next thing
The next thing
The next thing
