Lyrics
I am happy and I am sad
Does that make me sappy?
Or does that make me had?
How do you measure
The passing of time
When the thread on the spool
Begins to unwind?
There's something to freedom
And something to love
That blinds you, reminds you
To look out above
But how do you measure
The passing of loss
When the portraits and pictures
Have all lost their gloss?
Oh
Say it gets better
Lie if you have to
But tell me my heart will heal
Voice 2:
(Once when the sun was shining
morning didn't seem so bad
The noise of loss is blinding
Drowning out the love we had)
Voice 3:
(I didn't know
When the morning was coming
It wasn't in thinking of
Heartache approaching
Of course
Forgetting the blindside
That hindsight is always a bitter one
You fought my fighting
Pretending to notice
The passage of time
Had invited us nowhere
And fast
The longer you're gone
I am freer
And wanting for more)
