Her 33rd Perfect Goodbye
Lyrics
You glued your hopes onto a sunset that never came
Only you know the weak silhouette that you follow
Did you get a mournful knock on the door
From all the debris you don't think of anymore
And when you dance in your small room
You dance like a soft ghost wind that rolls
Around your spine like a valentine
The murmured threads of all the lives you led
You barely hear the alarm
You hardly lift a limb
The world watches you as you vanish
Your eyes circle like smoke rings
You're a paperweight in the ocean
A postcard sent to heaven
A serenade to the dungeon
The sweet hope you thought forgotten
Why don't you dance and fake some danger
Live for a day like a New York dancer
Why not be Paris, why not be Venice
Not the small grey town that drags your promise
We all danced closer as the night grew colder
Most words lost like money in December
Told everyone she said goodbye
In the soft way she moved her eyes
Just like a photo of a shared blue sky
So hey goodbye, hey farewell
You know there's no heaven and you know there's no hell
Just the impressions of your transmissions
The trace of the hopes you thought forsaken
So hey goodbye, hey farewell
You know there's no heaven and you know there's no hell
I watched you disappear in the light as you mumbled to yourself
You could be anyone, next time around
You could be anyone, next time around
You could be anyone, next time around
You could be anyone, next time around
You could be anyone, next time around
You could be anyone, next time around
You could be anyone, next time around
You could be anyone, next time around
So hey goodbye, hey goodbye
It's how we never die
It's how we never die
