Goodbye Everything
Lyrics
And so it begins, the commodification of everything
Advertising on your skin
That's how you know you can't win
And so it begins, the homogenisation of everything
The colours dissolve to grey
As your dreams slowly drift away
I thought I could be strong
I thought I could be strong
But now I can't hold on
Now I can't hold on
And so it begins, the disassociation of everything
It's making your poor head spin
That's how you know you can't win
And so it begins, the annihilation of everything
The pestilence and the plague
All the bombs and the tidal waves
I thought I could be strong
I thought I could be strong
But now I can't hold on
Now I can't hold on
So I say bye-bye, goodbye to the smoke and the static
Bye-bye, goodbye to the fumes and the plastic
Bye-bye, goodbye to the hours we wasted
Bye-bye, goodbye to the glories we tasted
Oh I say bye-bye, goodbye to the wind and the grass and the trees
Bye-bye, goodbye to the sea and the sky and the leaves
Bye-bye, goodbye to all your pretty faces
Bye-bye, goodbye, 'cos I can't take them with me
But I would if I could
And I sing
And so it begins, the commodification of everything
Advertising on your skin
That's how you know you can't win
And so it begins, the homogenisation of everything
The colours dissolve to grey
As your dreams slowly drift away
I thought I could be strong
I thought I could be strong
But now I can't hold on
Now I can't hold on
And so it begins, the disassociation of everything
It's making your poor head spin
That's how you know you can't win
And so it begins, the annihilation of everything
The pestilence and the plague
All the bombs and the tidal waves
I thought I could be strong
I thought I could be strong
But now I can't hold on
Now I can't hold on
So I say bye-bye, goodbye to the smoke and the static
Bye-bye, goodbye to the fumes and the plastic
Bye-bye, goodbye to the hours we wasted
Bye-bye, goodbye to the glories we tasted
Oh I say bye-bye, goodbye to the wind and the grass and the trees
Bye-bye, goodbye to the sea and the sky and the leaves
Bye-bye, goodbye to all your pretty faces
Bye-bye, goodbye, 'cos I can't take them with me
But I would if I could
And I sing
