I came for my shadow laid at my feet
Stretched out before me incomplete
Prayed to them children cut loose on the street
I bottled my worship I swallowed it neat

Somebody somewhere is missing you now look
They promised you mercy and they'll find it somehow
Keep the horizon ahead of your game
Look to your victory songs they sound the same

I shattered the arrow inside of my heart
Ten thousand pieces broken apart
Sown into gardens, grown up in rains
I battled my harvest all over again

Somebody somewhere is missing you now
They promised you mercy and they'll find it somehow
Keep the horizon ahead of your game
Look to your victory songs they sound the same

I have no mystery I hold no key
I know ten thousand others just like me

This has to be the most half-hearted "na-na na-na" I've ever heard in a song. I wouldn't go so far as to say I prefer the ones by Banana(nanana)rama and Kylie, but at least they were said with purpose.

Upon the first hearing of this song I was curious. Your comment says it all. I also would be hard-pressed to find a lamer "na-na", which prior to today was not something I had ever considered.

Trying to be the female version of Paul Simon?

Lacking just about everything musical...

Maybe your speakers are turned off. I am not especially overwhelmed by this tune, but I hear a melody, a chord progression, musical instruments, and singing — which musical aspects are this song "lacking"?

I quite liked this song, until the aforementioned "na-na-na".... Would have been fine with just some instrumentation.
