It

It (它) - Cass McCombs

Composer：Cass McCombs

It is not wealth

To have more than others

It is not peace

When others are in pain

It perched there coiling light

Though that many years ago

I remember the feeling like it was today

A strange feeling like a living memory

Like a weird kind of stranjavu or something

I want to know

I want to know

How can it stop

When there's nowhere to go

It is not vicory

To murder thousands in battle

It is not health

To take vitamins and excercise

Then what's even stranger

Is the moment it left

The memory feeling it grew very dim

And we all were in disagreement

About what we had seen

And Trevor said

If you've seen it

It just dropped you off

I want to know

I want to know

Where was it from

And where did it go

All it's life

Wondering

All of mine

Wondering

It is neither animated

Nor unanimated

Vegetable nor machine

Real nor unreal

It exists as it

In fact we can't even be sure of that

And there it is

A strange group memory

I want to know

I want to know

How can it stop

When there's nowhere to go

I want to know

I want to know

Where was it from

And where did it go
