If You Never Say Goodbye [P.M. Dawn]

Legs of a god.
Head of a man.
Eyes on the camera,
shaking everyone's hands.
Vultures circle
and smack their lips.
The sky goes black
as the lightening rips.
The stars are new.
Moon without pity
as waves of blood
roll over the city.
It's not a rehearsal
or special effects.
It's the end of a story,
it's what happens next.
If I say, (if I say)
it's coming any second.
If I say, and I say,
in the blink of an eye.
And I say, (if I say)
if I beg and I whimper.
And I say it's ok,
if you never say goodbye.

Son of a child
Song of a beast.
As it slouches and slithers,
it's waiting for the feast.
I dreamt a dream,
but what can it mean?
Angels in love
devoured the queen.
All the people danced;
tore at their clothes.
The sky was afire,
and the oceans froze.
It wasn't a fable.
It wasn't a hoax.
The seventeen devils
speaking of jokes.
If I say, (if I say)
it's coming any second.
If I say, and I say,
in the blink of an eye.
And I say, (if I say)
if I beg and I whimper.
And I say it's ok,
if you never say goodbye.

I saw a chapel.
Lain of God.
The light was so blue,
and the air was so cold
Sounds of home
on a microphone,
as the last kept rhythm
of chicken bone.
People wept,
And swallowed their jewels.
Enter like soldiers,
departing as fools.
It isn't incentive.
It's not a reward.
It's a black parachute
with a noose for a cord.
If I say, (if I say)
it's coming any second.
If I say, and I say,
in the blink of an eye.
And I say, if I say,
if I beg and I whimper.
And I say it's ok,
if you never say goodbye.
And I say it's ok,
if you never say goodbye.
And I say it’s ok,
if you never say goodbye.
And I say it’s ok,
if you never say goodbye.
And I say it’s ok
if you never say goodbye.
