lyrics

Empty Stable (for Mark Linkous)
(B. Harris)

Everything that's made is made to decay
But why now? And why this way?
Could you see the light we saw inside you?
Did it all become too much for you?

Your broken gifts repaired broken hearts
A soundtrack to life that hit like velveteen darts
And you decide that your work here is done
And you set yourself free beyond the moon and the sun

Now there's an empty stable
We'll hold it for you as long as we're able
So sad that you weren't stronger
Wish that you could have stayed longer

We all want to know why
And we'll think of you when we look to the sky
One last horseback ride
Before you gallup off to the other side

Goodbye...
