Lyrics
Hello, how’s it going? Ain’t it a beautiful day It’s just so nice to meet you I’m sad you’re going away The road is bumpy and frightening The path is full of unknowns When you finally break that shell It’s gonna hurt like hell
You were too kind to me You gave me a future I never had Bring me your memories I’m sorry that I crashed
Did you feel alive? Your future tries to break you Hell living in your mind Slips away so slowly You will never get them back You died in a slow goodbye
Hello, what are you doing? I don’t think this is right You’ve been so kind and welcoming I usually put up a fight I’m spiralling upwards I’m falling into the sky You gave me life You gave me all your time
I was unaware That all this shit was temporary Spinning through an open road I sorry I couldn’t give you any
Why were you taken away Tortured all the time Faked until you had no strength Weakened until it took your breath
Background
Slow Goodbye deals with one of the most profound and upsetting moments of my life and I’m sure the life of others. It deals with losing someone close. Sadly there are two tracks on this album that cover lost loved ones.
The lyrics are pretty self explanatory. I don’t want to discuss the details. I wrote a song I hope he’d enjoy. I’m happy with it as a kick-ass rock song. I’m trying to normalise life in doing so.
