Lyrics
I've used hammers made out of wood
I've used tools, possibly symbolic of efforts or methods in life
I have played games with pieces and rules
Engaged in games with rules, reflecting life's challenges
I've deciphered tricks at the bar
Solved mysteries or challenges at a bar, metaphorical or real
But now you're gone
Expressing loss or separation from someone
I haven't figured out why
Reflecting on the uncertainty of the departure
I've come up with riddles
Created puzzles or enigmas
And jokes about war
Used humor to cope with or discuss war
I've figured out numbers and what they're for
Understood numerical concepts and their purpose
I've understood feelings
Comprehended emotions
And I've understood words
Grasped the meaning of words
But how could you be taken away
Questioning the unfairness of the person's departure
And wherever you've gone
Reflecting on the departed person's whereabouts
And wherever we might go
Contemplating future destinations
It don't seem fair
Expressing a sense of injustice or unfairness
Today just disappeared
Noticing the sudden disappearance of a significant day
Your lights reflected now
Acknowledging the person's influence or impact
Reflected from a far
Recognition of influence from a distance
We were but stones
Metaphorically portraying humanity as stones
Your light made us stars
The departed person's influence elevated others
With heavy breath
Experiencing deep emotions
Awaken regrets
Awakening feelings of regret
Back pages and days alone they could've been spent
Reflecting on missed opportunities or lost time
Together but we were miles apart
Expressing physical and emotional distance
Every inch between us becomes light years now
The gap between individuals feels vast like light years
No time to be void
Emphasizing the importance of the present moment
Or save up on life
Encouraging to live fully without saving experiences
Uh you've got to spend it all
Advocating for the utilization of time without reservation
And wherever you've gone
Continued contemplation on the departed person's whereabouts
And wherever we might go
Considering potential future destinations
It don't seem fair
Reiterating the sense of injustice or unfairness
You seem to like it here
Noting the departed person's apparent contentment
Your lights reflected now
Recognizing the lasting impact or influence
Reflected from a far
Acknowledging the continued reflection from a distance
We were but stones
Repeating the metaphor of humanity as stones
Your light made us stars
Reiterating the transformative impact of the departed person
And wherever you've gone
Continued contemplation on potential future destinations
And wherever we might go
Reiterating the sense of injustice or unfairness
It don't seem fair
Reflecting on the sudden disappearance of the significant day
Today just disappeared
Reiterating the sense of injustice or unfairness
Your lights reflected now
Acknowledging the lasting impact or influence
Reflected from a far
Continued reflection from a distance
We were but stones
Repeating the metaphor of humanity as stones
Your light made us stars
Reiterating the transformative impact of the departed person
