Lyrics
It's been five years since I've been here
Reflecting on a five-year absence from a place or situation.
And my heart's still heavy as mountains when I hear
Expressing enduring emotional weight, especially when reminded of the past.
Now what'll we do
Pondering the next course of action or decision.
Since the horse gave up the ghost
Referencing a significant loss, possibly the death of a horse.
Now that we needed you the most
Expressing a sense of need or dependency on the lost entity.
It's a little less bright
Describing a decrease in brightness or optimism after the loss.
Since your sparkle went out
Connecting the loss to a diminishing sparkle or vibrancy.
It's a little more dark
Emphasizing an increase in darkness or negativity.
Since you shot your heart out
Linking the darkening mood to a metaphorical heartbreak or emotional devastation.
You were with us
Acknowledging the presence of the entity before its loss.
From coast to coast
Indicating a wide presence, possibly across different locations.
We don't feel you anymore
Expressing an inability to sense or connect with the entity anymore.
Since the horse gave up the ghost
Reiterating the impact of the horse's loss on the emotional state.
You were with us
Recalling the widespread presence of the entity before its loss.
From coast to coast
Reiterating the inability to feel the entity's presence anymore.
We don't feel you anymore
Emphasizing the ongoing impact of the horse's loss.
Since the horse gave up the ghost
