Dex, Daina:
No, please let me go
I can’t stay here where I’m not wanted
Love pulled astray and swept away
On western winds now far departed
And though we tried to talk of magic spells to use
I think it’s time walk in someone else’s shoes
On yellow boulevards with a sun that always shines
Forget promises of glory and a rainbow lining
Goodbye to the love I’ve known
Need to find a place that feels like home
Far from where the tale begins
Searching for a happy ending
In one hundred years you’ll see
If you ever stop to think of me
Just a memory to enjoy
For a wicked girl and a tin boy
So, we’ve come to know
The bittersweet way only time flows
In my chest I laid to rest
An empty tick that coldly echoes
And though I tried to see things from your point of view
I hurt you my pretty and your little heart too
In emerald cityscapes we lived not long ago
Turned from roads that carry you that I’m not meant to follow
Goodbye to the love I’ve known
Wish I could have made this place your home
Far from where the tale begins
Given you a happy ending
In one hundred years I’ll find
If your smiling face comes to my mind
Fleeting memories to enjoy
For a wicked girl and a tin boy
My world is spinning ‘round
The colors melting down
Blur to sepia again
I chose the simple route
Hollowed and rusted out
Feelings that I lost within
Goodbye to the love I’ve known
Can I find a place that feels like home?
Far from where the tale begins
Reaching for my happy ending
In one hundred years you’ll be
Just another piece inside of me
One last memory to enjoy
For a wicked girl and a tin boy

Dex:
I’ve framed it up in a memory that’s captured in full focus
A moment caught in the energy of what I thought your future would be
Collected up in an endlessly paraded string of voices
And at the end of their pageantry the spotlight falls on me
But what else can I say
When I’m still not okay
Every time I remember?
Things I said from afar
Words I’ve kept in my heart
Repeating what they were
“These autumn days
Where nothing stays
Two weeks will fly on by
In the blink of an eye
That’s when my dear
We’ll come back here
And do it all again
Farewell for now
I’ll see you then”
Did somebody block out the sun?
An eclipse stuck in slow motion
Would you be so kind as to help turn the light back on?
Is the room suddenly colder?
Do my footsteps seem to falter?
Everything that’s happened after washed out in a blur
Those autumn days
Where nothing stays
Two weeks just flew on by
In the blink of an eye
They’ve gone away
But, I have to stay
The years will fly on by
In the blink of an eye
If you’re somewhere
I’ll meet you there
And do it all again
Farewell for now
I’ll see you then
