Woke up early On the tenth anniversary GOOD MORNING Fit in clips of it Between food prep shorts Weather reports Check the day's commute And a look at sports I remember how the wind Was knocked from me Before it became footage A footnote in history Recently I think I heard it could have been avoided It shouldn't have occurred A fundamental obligation To my parents and my kids LIFE Gave me a glimpse of it Don't know who shot him They never caught him Let's get to the bottom And blow off the lid I'm trying to keep a balance Like the plates on top of sticks Chip away 'til it goes down When it goes down apply the kicks Recently I think I heard It could have been avoided It shouldn't have occurred Sadly we're desensitized To all the scandals and the cover ups The conspiracies and lies
Hello? Checked the clock when I got home And realized I was alone Sat for hours by the window Wonderin' where did you go? Couldn't eat or sleep at all Took the pictures off the wall Paced the place as time moves slow And I'm wondering where did you go? Where'd you go? Where'd you go? I want to know Lit a cigarette I couldn't smoke Wound the clock until it broke Went to bed then took a shower Stared at TV for an hour Did the dishes, made the bed Read a book I've never read Any minute you will show And I'm wondering where did you go? Where'd you go? Where'd you go? I want to know
Where did you go? [Repeat x4] I opened the fridge, I opened a beer And played a tape I couldn't hear Emptiness began to grow And I'm wondering where did you go? Watched the sun come up from the back stairs Thought about the last few years I lost control, I screamed, I cried I punched a pole and went inside Packed my things called a friend Wished this emptiness would end Wrote a note then tore it up Poured the beer into a cup Sat on the couch, drank it slow Wondering where did you go? I realized I couldn't stay Grabbed my things and I went away Where'd you go? Where'd you go? I want to know!
