Farewell Lyrics
[Verse 1]
(Looking at the world around)
(For the very first time)
(Never seen it all before)
(Hope it's not all mine)
[Verse 2]
On Monday morning, all alone
I woke within my house of stone
I ventured forth unto the day
These things I saw upon my way
[Verse 3]
Trees and flowers were wrapped around
With people's castoffs on the ground
Roads, all noise of glass and steel
And people snared within the wheel
[Bridge]
Tuesday, looked into the sky
Where birds in peace were left to fly
Thunder rolled and lightning flashed
Across the world as people dashed
[Verse 4]
Friday's sadness began to creep
Upon me like the deepest sleep
It seemed that only I could see
Just what my world would finally be
(Looking at the world around)
(For the very first time)
(Never seen it all before)
(Hope it's not all mine)
[Verse 2]
On Monday morning, all alone
I woke within my house of stone
I ventured forth unto the day
These things I saw upon my way
[Verse 3]
Trees and flowers were wrapped around
With people's castoffs on the ground
Roads, all noise of glass and steel
And people snared within the wheel
[Bridge]
Tuesday, looked into the sky
Where birds in peace were left to fly
Thunder rolled and lightning flashed
Across the world as people dashed
[Verse 4]
Friday's sadness began to creep
Upon me like the deepest sleep
It seemed that only I could see
Just what my world would finally be
[Verse 5]
On Sunday, back inside my room
I draw the blinds, 'tis afternoon
I let my mind find its own ways
Farewell to future days
On Sunday, back inside my room
I draw the blinds, 'tis afternoon
I let my mind find its own ways
Farewell to future days
