The Goodbye Song

Look at me
what do you see?
I've dwelt by the grove
where my grave's been dug

look in my eyes
how far have you got?
that cruel angry gorge
it's a shipwreck ashore

feel my side
that wound, does not harm
my sins like grains of sand
they sneak out from my hand

hear my voice
praise your grace
I hold my breath
'till I turned into clay

feel my lips
they have been ripped
for all those kisses
I've given you in my dreams

touch my skin
turn it to gilt
I'll vanish like smoke
when you trade me to the smugglers of love

hear the wind
face the breeze
they tell you are free
and yet you choose departing with me
