A Song for Departure

This is a song
Maybe this strangeness only ever was
(This is a song)
(This is a song)
This is a song, a song for a departure
A face like mine, bereft of dreams and white
Tearing it off like so many calendar days
This is a song
This is a song
(This is a song)
This is a song, a song for a departure
(This is a song)
This is a song

This is a song
This is a song, a song to take you homewards
This is a song, a song for broken lovers
To hide ourselves from some kind of happiness

(This is a song)
But always the moment it just seems to stay
This is a song, a song to break your heart to

(This is a song)
This is a song
But once within a long and broken night
This is a song, a song to break your heart to
This is a song, a song to take you homewards
(This is a song)
