Long Goodbyes by Thomas Cunningham Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2005

Hey everybody, have y'all lost your minds?
Haven't met another gentleman in quite a long time?
No pleases, no thank you's, no opening doors, seems like all the gentleman jumped ship, become assholes & whores
No respect, expect disrespect, it's eclectic, make everything sound so hectic
As if the rat race wasn't won, by society's coming undone
I'm tired, not stupid, reputation, not lucrative, enough I guess, no, enough not yet, well, emotions writing poems
Hide the rhymes, constantly change time, talk about lies, loved & lost, long goodbyes, styles change

So did I, so did I, long goodbyes, long goodbyes

Change the subject to love, come so close the smell hangs in your lungs
Haven't died trying, can't keep from prying, how'd you do it once before, amidst, assholes & whores, assholes & whores, assholes & whores

Emotions writing poems, hide the rhymes, constantly change time, talk about lies, loved and lost, long goodbyes, styles change

So did I, so did I, long goodbyes, long goodbyes

Funny you get tired of daydreams, & midnight screams, getting your heart pulled out with a tractor beam
Hurts just as much or more as the first time, the last time, the worst time, stylistic, artistic, aristocratic, fanatic, stopped a few steps short of just gosh damn fucking fantastic
Work of art, straight from the heart, heard it all before, shook you straight down to the core, leaves you gasping, & gasping, & thinking you wanted more
Heard it all before, yeah, I've heard it all before, yeah I've heard it all before, I've heard it all before, if I haven't heard it, I've heard it all before

Long goodbyes, yeah
Long goodbyes, yeah
Long goodbyes, long goodbyes, long goodbyes
Say a long
Say a long, say a long goodbye
