I don't speak to talk
And I write to draw
And I don't have the words
Or a prayer to give
Well not anymore
I'm just making noise
Till it sounds pretty
Or pretty fucked up

And don't get me wrong
I'm present among
Every last note
That echoes right now
And I'm bleeding into
The wavelengths you hear
But the moon won't exist
If nobody looks at it

More than an hour
My message is clear
I have more to say
But I'm losing my voice
You're no longer here
Or you never were
I would've left too
After hearing one chord

Thousands of trumpets
All playing for you
A fanfare so gray
And heard everyday
He turned his horn back
And he played on his own
His color was lost
And he's losing it too

It's not three minutes
And it's not top fifty
But hey it's human
And more alive too
It isn't refined
And it isn't dancing
It's moving as hell
And it's nothing at all

It's nothing at all
Well not anymore

Give me more reasons
To pop the champagne
I said give me more reasons
To pop the champagne
It's been almost six years
And I'm dying to live
But hey you never know
This could be the last

Miserable whimper
I'll whisper into
The ears of my peers
And microphone stand
I've got better things to do
And a new word to say
But till that time
Here's a story of mine

Walk across the oceans
The waves beneath my feet
Those faces still
Reach for me

So say goodbye
Just in case
Say goodbye
Just in case

Here we are
And here we were
Twenty long years
I've got better things to do now

'Cause darling you don't mean a thing
And I'm sitting in doldrums
Reaching from happy days

(Losing luminosity
Till they're just stars
Among stars

One day
I'll look at you and feel
What you see in me
And I'll feel nothing)

Soon I'll detach
