Dearly Departed

(Album: Resurrection - 2017)

So long, so long, so long
My dearly departed
It just so seems that we couldn't meet back here
Where we started
'Cause you stayed where you stayed
They say home's where the heart is
And often the hardest
The hardest part is departing

But you served, you served, you served
One heavenly purpose
For whatever the purpose
'Cause you served, you served, you served
One heavenly purpose
For whatever the purpose

My heart is
So far from that dark place where we started
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yes
Just an artist
In a world that ain't meant for me
I feel like a Martian
A Martian
So I'll be, I'll be, I'll be right on my way
And I'm sure to you I probably seem insane
But my canvas just ain't here for you to paint
And dreams just don't wait in vain

So long, so long, so long
My dearly departed
It just so seems that we couldn't meet back here
Where we started
'Cause you stayed where you stayed
They say home's where the heart is
And often the hardest (The hardest)
The hardest part is departing

But you served, you served, you served
One heavenly purpose
For whatever the purpose
'Cause you served, you served, you served
One heavenly purpose
For whatever the purpose

So exhausted
I'm lost in a world I can't take part in (No, no, no)
In an auction of content
My heart, my soul, my dreams won't be your option
No, no
And I'll be, I'll be, I'll be okay
When I leave I know you'll probably call me cray
I hope for you your way's a better way
But better ain't always the same
(Hell no) No, no, no no, no
No, no, no
No no

I gotta go
Baby I gotta leave
Can't stay here and still be happy
It's never easy
Soon you'll see
Sometimes the fortune is unfortunate
Sometimes the fortune is unfortunate

Oh, yeah, yeah

So long, so long, so long
My dearly departed
It just so seems that we couldn't meet back here
Where we started
'Cause you stayed where you stayed
They say home's where the heart is
And often the hardest
The hardest part is departing
