Goodbye

Goodbye

(album: Night Network - 2020)

Goodbye to the ones I guess we never knew at all
Goodbye to the ones who built their silence into walls
Goodbye to the nights we celebrated
Goodbye to the flame kept while we waited

Goodbye to the ones who told you you're the one that's changed
Spoken through veneers that help to keep his story straight
Goodbye when you chose the sons of privilege
Goodbye to that world that we can't live with

Child-like, hide together
While birds fly, fly un-tethered
From your power-line
Now they've slipped the noose
They'll come home to roost

Goodbye to the nights we celebrated
Goodbye to the flame kept while we waited
