A Song for Departure

(This is a song)

This is a song, a song for a departure

(This is a song)
(This is a song)

But always the moment it just seems to stay
This is a song
(This is a song)
(This is a song)
(This is a song)
This is a song, a song for broken lovers
This is a song, a song to break your heart to
Maybe this strangeness only ever was
This is a song
(This is a song)
To hide ourselves from some kind of happiness
This is a song, a song for a departure
Tearing it off like so many calendar days
This is a song, a song to take you homewards
This is a song, a song to take you homewards
This is a song
This is a song, a song to break your heart to
This is a song
This is a song
A face like mine, bereft of dreams and white

This is a song
But once within a long and broken night
