Abeyant by Empty Beds Lyrics

Things are not the same no matter how you look at it
Everyone moves on seeming to forget
I know you know I'd even let you know I know
We've always been able to conduct symphonies
With sticks and fingers a dance with seamless rhythm
From uncertain start to the dissonant now

There's something wrong and I can't find what's been broke, cogs stopped rust built its empire
I wish I had all the right words to say
But they have long lost their meaning

Things are not the same no matter how you look at it
Everyone moves on seeming to forget
I know you know I'd even let you know I know
We've always been able to conduct symphonies
With sticks and fingers a dance with seamless rhythm
From uncertain start to the dissonant now

How can you try with no goal in mind
No solution in sight
I felt nothing when you walked out the door and I haven't since, I don't pretend anymore
I don't lie to myself
A father once is a father forever
And a brother lost is a friend left in days remembered
But a father is all you will ever be
And you've lost all that you've gained and I've never felt more alive
