Better on the Drums - Goodbye

Goodbye
Didn’t wanna live a lie you know
Against a raging current
Swimming just to survive
A turned tide
Would sail me on that way
Though it looked calm under the surface
I got caught up in the wake

I launched myself and traveled
At the speed of light
And I surely broke through barriers
That hold most comfortably tight
And I saw all the pieces shatter
Once they slowed to a pause
I saw harmony in chaos
I saw clear through the fog

Past time
I’ve looked into that face
If I never knew that place
Would I have known I really wanted something
Outside
The construct I designed
With such narrow tunnel scope
That looked down linear lines

And if my heart was breaking
It was surely mine
My destructive sad behaving
Was a double edged knife
On the path that I was taking
I would walk through the fire
And emerge out of the embers
On the other side

Saying please please
See the forest not the trees
Write the story not the speech
Be the storm and not the beach
Please please
Wear your courage not the shell
Doubt your fears and not yourself
Live in love and not in hell

Fool’s pride
Like a black hole in space
Once you cross event horizon
It gets hard to escape
So I’ll fly
And leave a trail so bright
That it’s radiance in darkness
Is a beacon in the sky

This meteor could lead you
Out of bed one night
And in your dreams you’d see the view
Out from my limitless eye
You’d see reality so vivid now
Made falsified
You’d embrace a life of living
No more swimming to survive

Turn tide
This meteor goes by
Turn tide
This meteor goes by
