lyrics

Look alive, breathe, your lungs are on borrowed time
your heartbeats have gotten far too quiet
(Please keep it to a whisper, they're asleep)
I'll save this pain for sunny day
Something awful to ruin the view
Sunlight won't soften the news

Despair has become too commonplace
Buried my smile with you out at sea
On a chartered ship only meant to sink
Seems your souls were far too tired
Collect our tears to send to you on a wire
To your vacant shells, in mourning, we all sing

Goodbye for now
Just Another friend that's leaving town
Too many wakes to attend
Too many eulogies commemorate your end
We'll bury you in your finest Sunday best
That just won't do
Goodbye, Goodnight
To your starry eyes

The agony that haunted you
Is alive and well stalking our every step
Like a virus it has spread
Your parting gift, a kiss laced In lunacy
Your smiles are a poisoned memory
It's our ignominy

Goodbye for now
Just Another friend that's leaving town
Too many wakes to attend
Too many eulogies commemorate your end
We'll bury you in your finest Sunday best
That just won't do
Goodbye, Goodnight
To your starry eyes

A fucking belt and Fentanyl
Now paint a scene too sad to see
My loved ones struggling to breathe
Could I have changed your minds?
Could I have saved your lives?
Cause I can't forget you
How can I being to forgive you?

I hope you found your peace
That it's brighter where you are
Not much of a curtain call
But you left us all screaming for more

Goodbye for now
Just Another friend that's leaving town
Too many wakes to attend
Too many eulogies commemorate your end
We'll bury you in your finest Sunday best
That just won't do
Goodbye, Goodnight
To your starry eyes
