i’ve spent some time
chasing the fallen and left behind
but in the ground
a hollow imprint is all i found
and i got a new impression
i got a new impression of you
you left a new impression
you had a cold grip on me
as i followed you through the stars
i couldn’t see past the broken lights
still hoping for a spark
and i got a new impression of you
with that old look in your eyes
you put out your last cigarette in the dark spot in the sky
you said “make a wish”
the smell bad me sick
and let down, down, down
and i got a new impression
i got a new impression of you
you left a new impression
i’ve got no vision from staring too long at the sun
i’d believe in all the empty words spoken but not meant for anyone
i got a new impression of you now that my head’s out of the clouds
but i still feel as empty as i did while digging in the ground
the first thing you said to me was the last thing i’d ever hear
you said “don’t the stars just look so clear?”
