Irish Goodbye
05:36

In a time when all we have is gray, always gray
I’m inclined to lean into the change come what may
I can’t stay at the edges anymore - I’ve lost your face
Draw close, we’ll open every door on faith
Trip into the cold and silence my emotion
It’s nothing personal
An act of betrayal is hard to prove
When it’s done in love
We came so far and we stayed so long
That we lost track of why we had come at all
So maybe it’s time and maybe we might
Maybe we try for an Irish Goodbye

Oh my eyes they fill with tears
As I think back to the years
A racist school board segregated schools
If we're equal after all
Thurgood Marshall made the call
To Desegregate in 1947
So we stand here and say
This old school we won't giveaway
It's the last link before the memories start to fade
So preserve this old site
Cause it taught us how to fight
And the story it tells can't fade away
So preserve this old site
Cause it taught us how to fight
And that we are created equal after all
Yeah, we are created equal after all

Fallen (Piano Version)

Another day like the last one
Whiskey in my hand
Oh God, I pray
That I'll find something new
So I can live again
It's a long way to fall
It's a long way to fall
Take my hand
We'll jump into every kind of fire
The burn won't last
It's just another way to feel alive
It's a long way to fall
It's a long way to fall
In time you will see it's our time
We're all fallen
In time you will see it's our time
We're all fallen
In time you will see it's our time
We're all fallen
In time you will see it's our time
We're all fallen
It's a long way to fall
It's a long way to fall
It's a long way to fall
It's a long way to fall

We are merely moving shadows
Caught up in esoteric haze
So busy running towards nothing
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
As we stand here in our silence
Thinking nothing said is what to say
As it all falls down around us
As it all goes up in flames
Every lifetime is a moment
Each of us is just a breath
All we have is each other
Each other now in death
Can you hear me?
Are you listening?
Can you hear me?
Are you listening?
Can you hear me?
Are you listening?
Can you hear me?
Are you listening?
Every lifetime is a moment
Each of us is just a breath
All we have is each other
Each other now in death

I don’t have much to say but even if I did
You could take or leave it
I’m like an open book that’s been left behind
And I could hardly blame someone who chose to read it
So let’s all get a ticket to this voyeuristic symphony
And in the middle we’ll share secrets
About being disappointed that it ended happily
Because that’s not artistic
Hallelujah, hallelujah glory be
Thank you Jesus that they are not like me
Hallelujah, unless you see it differently
Thank you Jesus that they are not like me
Let’s go to a party where no one was invited
And claim the guest list is all full
You can laugh at all our stories and claim they’re inside jokes
Like they did in days of old
And I will hardly even notice that those outside are crying
We look the same with no sound
So light a match, pull the string, take a shower
It's all the same in this town
Hallelujah, hallelujah glory be
Thank you Jesus that they are not like me
Hallelujah, unless you see it differently
Thank you Jesus that they are not like me
Hallelujah, hallelujah glory be
Thank you Jesus that they are not like me
Hallelujah, unless you see it differently
Thank you Jesus that they are not like me
Hallelujah, hallelujah glory be
Thank you Jesus that they are not like me
Hallelujah, unless you see it differently
Thank you Jesus
