[00:16.170]Saturday sunset
[00:18.514]We’re lying on my bed with five hours to go
[00:26.443]Fingers entwined and so were our minds cryin, 'I don’t want you to go'
[00:36.195]You wiped away tears but not fears under the still and clear indigo
[00:45.791]You said, ‘Baby don’t cry, we’ll be fine, you’re the one thing I swear I can’t outgrow’
[00:54.970]
[00:56.450]My mother said the younger me was a 'Pretending' prodigy
[01:01.578]Well nothing, then, much has changed
[01:05.955]Cause while you’re wolfing down liquor, my soul it gets sicker
[01:11.206]But I’m stickin' to the screenplay, gotta say I’m okay
[01:14.923]But answer this babe:
[01:16.668]How is it now that somehow you’re a stranger?
[01:21.171]You were mine just yesterday
[01:26.643]I prayed the block in my airway dissipates and instead deters your airplane’s way
[01:35.110]
[01:35.345]But heaven denied destiny decried
[01:45.283]Something beautiful died too soon
[01:54.644]
[01:55.510]But I’m letting go
[02:00.823]I’m givin’ up the ghost
[02:05.689]But don’t get me wrong
[02:08.952]I’ll always love you, that’s why
[02:10.780]I wrote you this very last song
[02:15.713]I guess this is where we say goodbye
[02:25.084]I know I’ll be alright
[02:30.496]Someday I’ll be fine
[02:35.888]But just not tonight
[02:38.702]
[02:47.334]Plunging into all kinds of diversions like blush wine and sonorous soirées
[02:57.326]But even with gin and surgin’ adrenaline
[03:01.668]I see you’re all that can intoxicate
[03:07.621]Oceans and engines, you’re skilled at infringin' on great love affairs
[03:17.159]'Cause now my heart’s home
[03:19.374]All I’ve known is long gone and 10 thousand miles away
[03:25.973]
[03:26.223]And I’m not okay
[03:30.163]
[03:31.342]But I’m letting go
[03:36.544]I’m givin’ up the ghost
[03:41.186]But don’t get me wrong
[03:44.791]I’ll always love you and that’s why
[03:46.402]I wrote you this very last song
[03:51.414]I guess this is where we say goodbye I know I’ll be alright
[04:06.317]But just not-
[04:07.611]
[04:07.788]Tonight was the first time
[04:09.428]I stared into seas of beguiling sepia two years ago
[04:16.348]And the first time I learned real world superpowers
[04:20.020]Lived in three words they revitalize my fraying bones
[04:26.600]What do you do when your pillar crumbled down
[04:29.267]You’ve lost all solid ground
[04:30.447]Both dreams and demons drowned
[04:31.745]And this void’s all you’ve found and doubts light it aglow?
[04:36.441]I have so many questions
[04:40.323]But I’m pouring them into the ocean and I’m starting up my engine
[04:46.005]
[04:46.664]And I’m letting go
[04:51.784]I’m givin’ up your ghost
[04:56.892]It’s come to a close
[05:00.599]I marked the end with this last song I wrote
[05:06.489]
[05:07.171]I’m letting go
[05:12.112]This is the last falsetto
[05:16.871]I’ll ever sing to you my great
[05:22.262]Lost love
