Thousands More to Go

Hold it in my hand
Wear the edges smooth
Try to shape the remnants into you
The shape of you

Break it down to atoms
Sifting through the dust
Trying to find meaning in these
Leftovers of us

Keep it in my pocket
Keep it in my mind
Keep it from wandering too far
Leaving it behind
It's one more day without you
Thousands more to go
One more day of wondering
What I should have known

Figures hard in my hand
Shapes still bend and twist
Worn it down it down to abstracts
There must be
Something that I missed
Somewhere in the carbon
Theres got to be a key
If I can just keep the faith
If I can just believe

Keep it in my pocket
Keep it in my mind
Keep it from wandering too far
Leaving it behind
It's one more day without you
Thousands more to go
One more day of wondering
What I should have known

I could put it down
And leave it
I could frame it on the wall
Road trip to the canyon
And watch, watch the damned thing fall
I will keep it like a treasure
Like a poison pill
Promised I would love you
I know I always will
