Farewell, My Dear, Good Luck (Song Lyrics)

 

So this is it. I know I’ve lost myself in you.

I don't know why I even care at all about you,

but as you go now, I feel ripped apart,

and I know it’s my own fault 

for giving you my heart.


I tried to take the consequences of 

your actions.

I tried to sacrifice myself 

for your stupidity.

I tried to make myself be like a saint,

but now I'm asking myself

If I have gone insane…


Go and take all you've brought.

Go home and sit and rot

in all the hate you've got.

Hey, it’s sad,

but baby, I have been blind,

and baby, you were unkind,

the truth is; you’ve been out of line

all this time.

I'll always care somewhere in my heart,

but I can't let you rip me apart.

Farewell, my dear. Good luck.


So this is it.

Now all that love and hate behind me,

after three years, you don’t know anything about me.

So strange to feel both devastated and relieved,

left to pick up all the pieces of love once believed.


No longer will your angry eyes burn into mine fixated.

No longer will I be so damn underappreciated.

No longer will I be Miss Therapist,

and now I ask myself; what the hell was this?


Go and take all you've brought.

Go home and sit and rot

in all the rage you've got.

Hey, it’s' sad,

but baby, I have been blind,

and baby, you were unkind.

The truth is you’ve been out of line all this time.

I'll always care somewhere in my heart,

but I can't let you rip me apart.

Farewell, my dear. Good luck

Purple Ashes In The Sky

Purple ashes  in the sky. At dusk they fall  as my dreams turn to dust. They were of silk, but it was lust. Unreal was the zeal where diamonds encrust.  There's no chance to be cut or shined amid the rut  of not fitting like the cut of a “normal” kind of strut. My walk's not with a limp, but it is with a sway. Most people don't think my way, and it's battered me  today. I thought I would know the way, but I'm still climbing higher. It is odd, and it is dire. I was born  to be stuck this way. Without typical tools, without typical rules, I'm in my own school of life and wearing these painful shoes, somehow paying the dues  while my heart wears a bruise. And I wheeze  from these ashes. They look purple to me as they fall from the mauve sky  where my dreams flew up  to die because those dreams were just  a lie. Some people get by and some people try, but they're trapped under the rhythm. It's a dice, and it's a schism  It's a priv...

Peace Is Brave

  Peace is defiant. Yes, peace is brave amid the polarized fighting, to ride on the waves, to reach out and say, there's a middle, there's a grey, and it's okay. Yes, it's okay. 2022 Enjoy reading Purple Ashes In the Sky on Blogger and consider supporting the book via purchase or donating to my Go Fund Me .

When The Lights Go Out

  When the lights go out will I be in the air? I don't want it to be soon, 'cause it's not quite yet fair - So I fight with a prayer... But when the lights do go out, will there really be peace? Will there really be stars? Or will I simply cease? Yes, when the lights go out, will I be all fulfilled? Will my business be done? Will you remember me, still? And when the lights go out, I hope that I am ready. I hope I will be won and the ground left is steady  for the ones I'll leave behind and especially my own kind. Hope they'll hum a song of  mine when they see the light  left behind shine. 2021 Enjoy reading Purple Ashes In the Sky on Blogger and consider supporting the book via purchase or donating to my Go Fund Me .
