a_fond_farewell
unhinged bye bye is now black and white
cause you took apart a picture that wasn't right
bitch burning on a shining shoe
the only maker that you want of me
a dying man and a living room
the shadow faces the floor
i'll take you out any open door
this is not my life
it's just a fond farewell to a friend
it's not what i like
it's just a fond farewell to a friend
i couldn't get things right
a fond farewell to a friend
you said really i just wanna dance
good and evil match perfect
it's a great romance
i can deal with some psychic pain
if it'll slow down my higher brain
things full of disability
vomitting in a kitchen sink
disconnecting from the missing link
this is not my life
it's just a fond farewell to a friend
it's not what i like
it's just a fond farewell to a friend
i couldn't get things right
a fond farewell to a friend
i see you're leaving me
taking up with the enemy
the cold comfort of the in between
a little less than a human being
a little less than a happy high
a little less than a suicide
the only things that you really tried
this is not my life
it's just a fond farewell to a friend
it's not what i like
it's just a fond farewell to a friend
i couldn't get things right
a fond farewell to a friend
this is not my life
it's just a fond farewell to a friend

sab it wasnt as hard as i thought
an all enveloping hug
breathing you in as much as i could

then arms release and
gone.

with 'well, thats me' echoing around my head
i watched you from the side as you walked past those big metal doors
which closed, removing you from my view.

you never looked back
and that was so like you, i could have cried.

but i didnt


so i drove home
and found the email waiting

and i covered my face with my hands
and sobbed for a while

and then i picked myself back up
and went on with the next thing on my list.
