You Make Us Feel Nothing

You Make Us Feel Nothing

by Mat Greaves

Verse 1
Once a year, we would make our home,
For a month, in the mountains we would stay
Little did we know,
we would all have to go
It would all be taken away
Those whom we
had foolishly deemed our friends
I suppose we really should have known
For their love of currency
And through their vicious treachery
They would claim the mountain as their own

Chorus
But we never wanted us to be enemies
We never wanted the good times to end
We never wanted things to end in misery
But sometimes, things time just will not mend.

Verse 2
You shared the laughter
The food and the wine
You shared the music we would play
But after several fights
And after several drunken nights
We had to tell you all to go away
Yes after several fights
And after your imagined slights
We had to tell you all to go away

Chorus
We never wanted the music to end

Bridge

So here the rest of us remain
Let’s see who will go
And who will stay
Without you the kumpania will never be the same
But there’s comfort in knowing
Nothing lasts forever anyway

Verse 3
You were our friends
You were our family
Oh how we all adored you
But then one day
You would sorely betray us
Something that we thought you’d never do
We gave you friendship
We gave you love
You traveled with us for many years
After two weeks
They would sweep you out to sea
And the rest would all end in tears

Chorus
We never wanted our friendship to end

Bridge
…and you make us feel nothing
