Farewell

(album: Background Music - 2001)

Whatever this becomes,
Whatever words I say, we are the fortunate ones,
And when the days are done I won't forget.
All I see in you and me,
Is a light in the dark of humanity.
And when the days are done, I won't forget.

Timid steps, come walk with me, yeah.
And with your useless words, come talk to me.
There are broken hearts now on your stereo,
But the broken beats are just too slow.
You'll cry, it doesn't change a thing.

Kill the lights and let the rain fall.
Recall the memories of yesterdays and better ways
And know the innocence is gone, move on.
From this day on we'll never be the same.

The saddest songs make sense to me, yeah,
So with your sunken eyes come look for me.
2 hour drives are 2 hours alone
But 2 hour drives are better than home
You'll die, it doesn't change a thing.

You will
Kill the lights and let the rain fall.
Recall the memories of yesterdays and better ways
And know the innocence is gone, move on.
From this day on we'll never be the same.

Faster words and faster kids
Faster songs and faster ends
The one thing that's stayed the same.
I've lived through days
And I've lived through nights
I've had my loves
And I've had my fights.
You've got to know, you have my heart.

Faster words and faster kids
Faster songs and faster ends
The one thing that's stayed the same.
I've lived through days
I've lived through nights
I've had my loves
I've had my fights.
You've got to know (you've got to know), you have my heart.
