lyrics
You severed the stone, intently thrown, at the bird in the alley tucked back behind St. Joe’s
Half for the windshield of the car across the street
The other half lost to the void, like the feeling I had back then
Do you feel the same thing that I do?
Mono no aware
Feel the same thing that I do
You thought up a poor lie to veil how the bird died
When the adults came by
And questioned us in the office kids went to in the worst of times.
That was before you brought me down to the basement
Where a part of me’s lost to the void, like the feeling I had back then
Do you feel the same thing that I do?
Mono no aware
Feel the same thing that I do
I think I’m doing okay these days
It’s just the pathos of all things
I called you up just so I could say
It will be here even if you’re not
It will be here even if I’m not
Do you feel the same thing that I do?
Mono no aware
Feel the same thing that I do
Remember how I brought up Marguerite’s hands to illustrate the flesh we ate back then?
When Grandma slowly faded from Alzheimer’s like a lifeless steak in that empty diner.
It now reminds me of my failing grasp of the present, memory, self, and past.
Half for the windshield of the car across the street
The other half lost to the void, like the feeling I had back then
Do you feel the same thing that I do?
Mono no aware
Feel the same thing that I do
You thought up a poor lie to veil how the bird died
When the adults came by
And questioned us in the office kids went to in the worst of times.
That was before you brought me down to the basement
Where a part of me’s lost to the void, like the feeling I had back then
Do you feel the same thing that I do?
Mono no aware
Feel the same thing that I do
I think I’m doing okay these days
It’s just the pathos of all things
I called you up just so I could say
It will be here even if you’re not
It will be here even if I’m not
Do you feel the same thing that I do?
Mono no aware
Feel the same thing that I do
Remember how I brought up Marguerite’s hands to illustrate the flesh we ate back then?
When Grandma slowly faded from Alzheimer’s like a lifeless steak in that empty diner.
It now reminds me of my failing grasp of the present, memory, self, and past.
