I Am Goodbye Lyrics

Bonnie Prince Billy I Am Goodbye

You are hello, a glowing cry
Heaven we go, never say die
I'll likely never know the answer why
You are hello, I am goodbye.

I am goodbye
Like the end of something wonderful sometimes
Like the way that a wound up toy top unwinds.
I am goodbye,
I am goodbye.

I am goodbye
Like a beast in the distance
You can't tell if fur or fowl [foul?]
Like the last thing you hear best
Before you hear the howl, and goodbye.
I am goodbye.

I am goodbye,
Like the end of something wonderful sometimes,
Like the abscess of roaring war prowls into my mind
And goodbye,
I am goodbye.
