A Space Between

Billy was a car crash, all he ever knew was pain
Lived a milli-milli-milli-second, never born again
Though no one saw him coming, plenty witnessed his remains
Laid a wreath, yet they never knew him
Me? I'm just the rain
Laid poor Billy to eternal rest, eternal rust
I soaked the dust that covers him, I wait for all the others
They all have names...

Red Harry was a bright young spark that grew and burned old London Town in '66
He flew to bits, he tore it down - bubonic bliss
And me? I'm just the kiss our maker blew to put him out
To eternal rest, eternal rust
To dust, to ash
I covered up and waited for all the others
They all have names...

We all have names...

Georgie was cut on Hitler's knee
He ran for weeks, turned shades of green
They kidnapped me and made him clean
On Winter nights, I hear him scream
I cover up, I wait for all the others
Jane? Her mother was a hurricane
Who swept the plains and sneezed away a continent with me, the sea
The team that made a myth by hiding it
Became a hit on Broadway but it wasn't quite the same... they all forgot our names
We all have names
