Versuri Eight Letters

We became the parade on the streets that we once cleaned 
Expendable soldiers smiling at anything 
Raised on a feeling our lives would have meaning eventually 
 
We were once the answer and then you discover 
You're actually just one thing after another 
And what was the question and why was the lesson so deafening? 
 
This is all that matters now 
And that was all that happened anyhow 
You can look back but don't stare 
Maybe I can love you out of there 
 
And when I went away what I forgot to say 
Was all I had to say: 
Eight letters, three words, one meaning 
 
And outside forces didn't make it easy 
So I thought I'd go before you leave me 
Self-preservation was no explanation for anything 
 
But the truth is more than we'll ever comprehend 
I'm just starting to understand, my friend 
All of that distance, 'cause I fell in love with the enemy 
 
This is all that matters now 
And that was all that happened anyhow 
You can look back but don't stare 
Maybe I can love you out of there 
 
And when I went away what I forgot to say 
Was all I had to say: 
Eight letters, three words, one meaning 
 
And when I went away what I forgot to say 
Was all I had to say: 
Eight letters, three words, one meaning 
 
At last, we meet on no man's land 
Just footprints in the sand 
We meet on no man's land, at last  
 
And when I went away what I forgot to say 
Was all I had to say: 
Eight letters, three words, one meaning 
 
And when I went away what I forgot to say 
Was all I had to say: 
Eight letters, three words, one meaning 
 
One meaning 
Just one meaning
