Farewell (No News, Good News | mix)

Just Let It Burn

Now it’s vertigo, then moonglow
And everything feels so new
All that’s left to say is float on
and now we’re into the blue      
              
We’re already homesick but we’re not looking back
We’re equal parts elated and just numb to the facts
And we’re making time on this celestial track                       
Nothing but sky    

See the light now gently bending
and see the color decay
And the force that always bound us
its pull is slipping away     

Yes, it’s terrifying but it’s here and it’s ours
It’s electric lovers drinking heat from the stars
It’s a billion lightyears, but it isn’t that far 
A violent joy 

The moon is laughing 
The cosmos is asking

See the light now gently bending
and see the color decay
And the force that always bound us
its grip is slipping away

We’re a little stricken but we’re not looking back
We’re equal parts elated and just numb to the facts
And we’ve made good time on this celestial track
And now we’re home

Vertigo Then Moonglow

I'll take you where you please
—
I think I've seen this before, am I right?
Built an image for your pride
Then I got caught, in a place, I couldn't escape
Now I have to pretend I'm okay

You drew your illusions in the mirror
The one I've seen in your pictures
Only he knows, what wrong, have you done
Even blindspots carry stones
—
And still I haven't found the key
The real path that leads to home
Fell flat on my own road
Now the props run away from me
—
I met this kind before
Just happened I couldn't say no
Only I, know I'm right, I can't fight
Cause It's been there for long

(I drown and sink)
I drown and sink those visions of mine
All the reasons my props won't align
They can't trust, what I've done, It's too late
To make their reasons go
—
And still I haven't found the key
The real path to leads to home
Fell flat on my own road
Now the props run away from me
—
But you can understand
You had the luck I had
If you will, stay away, I will keep
All my creepiness to myself

It's so awkward to feel alone
There's no one to cry my thoughts
I need you, like you need, me as well
It was my plan all along
–
I'll take you where I need

4. Props Of Mine

Brothers and sisters stopped to rest up their feet
Dipping their blisters in those fresh Alcove springs
They laid down Sarah and they prayed her god speed
Consumption took her before she could be meat

They couldn’t stay long, there weren’t no time to grieve
Bess get to climbing, Wasatch Range is real steep
They reached the Salt lake in the late summer heat
They lost some wagons when the mud started to weep

Forlorn hope is fading
Unclaimed frontier and buried gold
Mr Hastings he was too hasty 
His new route was too dangerous and bold 
And hell followed

Mad about the natives John was pummeling Reed
But Reed pulled his hunting knife and he plunged it real deep
Hardkoop too weary for the pace they would keep
Got left by the trail and that’s the last he was seen

The Paiute raided again down at Humbolt sink
Wolfinger stopped to cache away all of his things
The Wolfingers had riches they weren’t gonna need
So Joseph shot down Karl and left his widow cash free

Forlorn hope is fading 
Unclaimed frontier and buried gold
Mr Hastings he was too hasty 
His new route was too dangerous and bold 
Oh no

They took a break at Truckee Lake in mid November
The snow that fell that night wasn’t due until December
No going forward, there weren’t no turning back 
They had no other choice except to start to set up a camp

It wasn’t long before they run out of food
They ate the dogs, they ate their shoes, they even ate the rug too
Some of the stronger members well they set out for help
But within ten days they started eating themselves

The Indian guides Salvador and Luis
Said man this ain’t natural, ain’t no way we can do this
So the group shot them dead and ate em’ day after Christmas
By then it was normal, they didn’t ask for forgiveness

Back at the camp they didn’t fare too much better
They started eating people once they ran out of leather
The harsh winter span, it had taken a toll 
And when it was over they’d eaten 21 souls

When a rescue party finally reached the undead
They found Lewis Keseberg and they found him well fed
Mrs Donner needed for help for the man that she wed
Mrs Donner looked for help over in the wrong shed

Forlorn hope is faded 
Unclaimed frontier and buried gold
Mr Hastings well he never made it 
To his new route that was dangerous and bold

Manifest, destiny, drove them from Springfield
Too hungry to ride that Oregon trail
That hunger, it doomed them, to their nightmare ordeal
Because they were destined to fail

On Donner & Bitten

Stars twinkle like eyes 
Watching behind 
The veil of night
Here I am waiting to meet you back home with the light 

Fool me once, shame on you
Fool me twice, shame on you 
But spend one more night without me daddy, I’m blue 

Time trickles like rain 
When can I escape 
The hourglass 
I’m facing the wind with a ghost at my back 

Fool me once, shame on you 
Fool me twice, shame on you 
But lie to me one more time baby, I’m blue

I know you’re mad because your friends already told me 
I wish you could forgive, I swear that was the old me 
I learned my lesson this time it’s for good
I know I should have listened this time I will if you would 
Just give me one more chance, I’ll never fool you again 
Come on baby, don’t be that way 

Fool me once, shame on you 
Fool me twice, shame on you 
But lie to me one more time baby
I said lie to me one more time Billy McGuire
I’m blue

LYRICS:
VERSE 1
My time
Has run out
The day has ended
And there's no colour left in me
Like a shroud
The silence wraps around me
What makes the quiet sound so loud

CHORUS 1
I know that I
Am not afraid
Of what comes after 
Don't fear the darkness
Washing over me
So shine a light
Shine a light
And give me answers
Don't know if I
Am ready to believe

VERSE 2
I've had my time
And I hope I'll be remembered 
Now take me where I have to go
(I have to go)
When nothing's left
And the flames are only embers
When will I wake up from this dream
(Wake up from this dream)

CHORUS 2
I know that I
Am not afraid
Of what comes after 
Don't fear the darkness
Washing over me
So shine a light
Shine a light
And give me answers
Don't know if I
Am ready to believe
Don't know if I
Am ready to believe
Don't know if I
Am ready to believe

CHORUS 3
I know that I
Am not afraid
Of what comes after 
Don't fear the darkness
Washing over me
So shine a light
Shine a light
And give me answers
Don't know if I
Am ready to believe
Don't know if I
Am ready to believe
Don't know if I
Am ready to believe
Don't know if I
Am ready to believe
