lyrics

Will things be any different
or will everything just stay the same?
Before you were gone, you were sort of already gone
Before you were gone, we knew you wanted to be
The moon stayed blue, it’s true - you wanted us to see
The TV static still scatters ubiquitously
Missing pieces now, it’s still a legacy

There’s a color inside your eyes - a ticket to our souls
An empty bottle’s no prize - it used to fill the hole
A hero to youth remains adored for eternity
The light you shined so bright, it's blinding
Even in the dark

’96 was the year, that part of you disappeared
Never to return
It’s abysmal to think of what could have been
An opposite reality, an alternative end
And now the credits are rolling, and we won’t let them stop
This is a spiritual mission, this is a critical verse
This is the necessary eulogy redeeming all deficiencies
You can black out the moon, but in our hearts it’s blue

The moon is down, but it’s up in our hearts
