It’s funny how it happened
It’s sad now that it’s over
A fitting end
To a messed up world
All us pawns too small to see

The sky will still be pretty
The grass will still be green,
But I still think we’ve lost something…
Just between you and me.

Because the world’s a little darker
And my feet keep getting lost
An itch to wander
Always stronger
Than my will to stand still

All the bright lights
In all the cities
More power there
Can’t even comprehend
Electricity pumping
Through our concrete veins
Keeps the stars from showing
The light seeps out and
Keeps us in the dark

But in our hearts
We all crave attention
Like the lights
Shining Bright
That illuminate
Our skies

So take a deep breath
And take a step back
The sky will still be pretty
The grass will still be green,
But we’ve lost something…
Haven’t we?
