Goodbye 2006

from Autobiography EP by Boy Without God

lyrics

Happy new year
did you escape your fears
in the arms of some second-hand me?
it’s okay babe, I know it’s hard to wait

I’m alone now
she has flown from my chest
and freedom is mine yet again
that crippling sight of endless colored lights

the same fears plague me
consistently, someone
give me a pretty face
and break my neck before I let her down

If you only knew
how I’m coming unglued
at the mere thought of you in your room
but take your time, I’ll just be lying by the door
no don’t bother bout me, just wake me up when you know
oh and lady please, leave the light on when you go

nothings broken
lift up your head
and walk out that door
these lies hurt bad
but you can be your own god
and go into the river

in the water I was born again at last
and that morning with some whiskey in my flask
I set out once and for all
wanting finally to be free from all the rise and fall
singing: I won’t be afraid!

stole an airplane with a medal round my neck
flew it out of range of all the cigarettes
and in the silence of the sky I
heard the voice of god and it was me
and it said: I won’t be afraid!

I won’t be afraid!

I won’t be afraid!
