Rusty Crayfish Brass Band - There It Goes

It's hard to contemplate
The permanent nature of our fragile state
The mind, it tries to soothe itself
Searching for the certainty in borrowed wealth
But change comes up like the ground below
Hidden in the scenery constant and slow
And we all just avert our eyes
What's one more witness to the fratricide
There it goes
There it goes
You never know just what you got until is gone
There it goes
There it goes
You never know just what you got until is gone
It's so easy to distract our minds
With the trivial problems of our daily lives
Fooled by the slight of hand
We turn from reality on command
But truth, it's there like the dormant seed
Waiting for the satisfaction of its needs
And we still choose to hide our light
How much can you really see in the blackness of night
There it goes
There it goes
You never know just what you got until is gone
There it goes
There it goes
You never know just what you got until is gone
All this thinkin' does it get us anywhere
All these objections, should we even care
It seems this is what the mind will do
When faced with problems too big for me, too big for you
But time, it awaits us all
Disrupts and comforts in one wrecking ball
And we'll just try to soldier on
The mission continues long after we're gone.
There it goes
There it goes
You never know just what you got until is gone
There it goes
There it goes
You never know just what you got until is gone
