Empty Handed
Echoes of Loss: A Journey Through Life's Fragility
Lyrics
We're passing the wine, passing the gold and passing away, that's livin'
We engage in indulgence, wealth, and life, acknowledging its transient nature.
Cherish the rest and keep your chest locked it's what's been given
Value what remains and protect what is given to us.
Keep up the pace as long as we pretend we're always winning
Keep a facade of constant success as long as we can.
We're never done another death is just a new beginning
Every death signifies a new chapter or opportunity.
After the one died we leave the ruins empty handed
After someone important dies, we are left with nothing tangible.
Remember the times we fought? We leave the walls that we defended
We abandon the fortified walls from past conflicts.
And as the wind subsides, you lead us into, you lead us into the fog
In uncertain times, someone guides us into the unknown.
Since you left i feel a little, a little, little lost
Feeling a sense of loss since someone's departure.
The tear in your eye means letting go
Tears signify acceptance and release.
Just hang up we're never getting old
Choosing to disengage, resisting the aging process.
Far from the docks is where we dwell
We reside far from familiar places.
Shut it up, there's no need to tell
Keep secrets, avoid unnecessary disclosures.
Trying to keep the face
Struggling to maintain composure or a facade.
(Face) to face we meet then gone without a trace
Interactions are brief, leaving no lasting impact.
Since you left i feel a little, a little, little lost
Continued sense of loss since the departure.
With a silent scream through darkest nights and empty bottles
Expressing inner turmoil through silence and intoxication.
Three more years from now i'll drown myself in muddy waters
Considering a self-destructive path in the near future.
I'll follow you down to the sea and hike across forbidden borders
Willingness to cross forbidden boundaries to reunite.
To reunite what used to be divided into quarters
Seeking unity where there was once division.
I never meant to cause you trouble though the words came out
Unintentional trouble caused by words spoken.
You know me far to well i'm not the first to talk, i'm not the first you tell
Being known well, yet not the first choice for conversation.
The dark clouds hovering above you everywhere you go
Symbolic dark clouds accompany someone everywhere.
It's just a normal conversation as we wander through the snow
Casual conversations amid difficult circumstances.
The tear in your eye means letting go
Tears as a sign of accepting the need to let go.
Just hang up we're never getting old
Choosing to disconnect, resisting the aging process.
Far from the docks is where we dwell
Residing in a distant place away from familiar surroundings.
Shut it up, there's no need to tell
Keep silent, no need to share unnecessary information.
Trying to keep the face
Struggling to maintain a composed exterior.
(Face) to face we meet then gone without a trace
Brief encounters with no lasting impact.
Since you left i feel a little, a little, little lost
Continued sense of loss since the departure.
