Fond Farewell

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The Lite-Brite's now black and white Cause you took apart a picture that wasn't right Pitch burning on a shining sheet The only maker that you want to meet A dying man in a living room Whose shadow paces the floor Who'll take you out any open door [Chorus] This is not my life It's just a fond farewell to a friend It's not what I'm like It's just a fond farewell to a friend Who couldn't get things right A fond farewell to a friend [Verse 2] He said really I just want to dance Good and evil match perfect, it's a great romance And I can deal with some psychic pain If it'll slow down my higher brain Veins full of disappearing ink Vomiting in your kitchen sink Disconnecting from the missing link [Chorus] This is not my life It's just a fond farewell to a friend It's not what I'm like It's just a fond farewell to a friend Who couldn't get things right A fond farewell to a friend [Verse 3] I see you're leaving me And taking up with the enemy The cold comfort of the in-between A little less than a human being A little less than a happy high A little less than a suicide The only things that you really tried [Chorus] This is not my life It's just a fond farewell to a friend It's not what I'm like It's just a fond farewell to a friend Who couldn't get things right A fond farewell to a friend This is not my life It's just a fond farewell to a friend
