3am has come
And grabbed me like a storm
Holding down my head
Making pictures form
Scenes of serenity
Scenes of faded hues
Scenes full of content because they're filled with you

But the sorrow waits just on the other side
And another trace comes out I'll have to hide
I'm drowning on land
It's just as I've planned
I throw myself down the hill towards the rocks and sand
I take my own pill and swallow it whole
I'll never make you understand

Bleed it all right out
Turn my skin to blue
Masking all the light that once was seen by you
I'll hide into the dark
Feel its emptiness
Resonate with it and by it I'll be dressed
One more convoluted piece of scrawly art
One more broken piece pulled right out of the stars
I'm drowning on land
it's just as I've planned
I throw myself down the hill towards the rocks and sand
I take my own pill and swallow it whole
I'll never make you understand
You don't hate yourself enough to love me yet, yet
You don't hate yourself enough to love me yet, yet
You don't hate yourself enough to love me yet, yet
You don't hate yourself enough to love me yet, yet
I hope you never do
You're worth you're weight in gold
And I'm like a distant taste
Just leave me to go old

    A beautiful song. The lyrics reflect on the truth of our existence, the passage of time, the coming and passing of all we experience, the passage of those we love and know. Taken on face value this might be a cause of sadness but the melody in which the words are set in a melody which is bright and optimistic, yet not overstated. It has a hint of regret but also one of thanks for what was.....goodbye, goodbye, my friend, keeps the value of the friendship/love even where it's lost. In a world where everything passes the only thing real is love for those who share it.
