lyrics

What we forsake what we replace, A life in the present a life in grace
While we remain collecting dust, With hot buttered luck and seared distrust

We hide and get the loneliest view, a kid'll never come around and split the sky in two
Behind every timeliest clue, a riddle that we'll never solve won't split the sky in two
Goodbye, get along - - Goodbye, get along

What we reflect then never face, A time spent in slumber we can't erase
What we condemn through bent belief, The coin of life a wasted thief


What we lay bare then don't expose, Disguise our failure in poem or prose
What we won't see or not forecast, And then life goes on this too will pass

We hide and get the loneliest view, a kid'll never come around and split the sky in two
Behind every timeliest clue, a riddle that we'll never solve won't split the sky in two
Goodbye, get along - - Goodbye, get along
