Tim Buckley - Goodbye and Hello слова песни

The antique people are down in the dungeonsRun by machines and afraid of the taxTheir heads in the grave and their hands on their eyesHauling their hearts around circular tracksPretending forever their masquerade towersAre not really riddled with widening cracksAnd I wave goodbye to ironAnd smile hello to the air O the new children dance ------ I am youngAll around the balloons ------ I will liveSwaying by chance ------ I am strongTo the breeze from the moon ------ I can givePainting the sky ------ You the strangeWith the colors of sun ------ Seed of dayFreely they fly ------ Feel the changeAs all become one ------ Know the Way The velocity addicts explode on the highwaysIgnoring the journey and moving so fastTheir nerves fall apart and they gasp but can`t breatheThey run from the cops of the skeleton pastPetrified by tradition in a nightmare they stagger Into nowhere at all and they look up aghastAnd I wave goodbye to speedAnd smile hello to a rose O the new children play ------ I am youngUnder the juniper trees ------ I will liveSky blue or gray ------ I am strongThey continue at ease ------ I can giveMoving so slow ------ You the strangeThat serenely they can ------ Seed of dayGracefully grow ------ Feel the changeAnd yes still understand ------ Know the Way The king and the queen in their castle of billboardsSleepwalk down the hallways dragging behindAll their possessions and transient treasuresAs they go to worship the electronic shrineOn which is playing the late late commercialIn that hollowest house of the opulent blindAnd I wave goodbye to MammonAnd smile hello to a stream O the new children buy ------ I am youngAll the world for a song ------ I will liveWithout a dime ------ I am strongTo which they belong ------ I can giveNobody owns ------ You the strangeAnything anywhere ------ Seed of dayEveryone`s grown ------ Feel the changeUp so big they can share ------ Know the Way The vaudeville generals cavort on the stageAnd shatter their audience with submachine gunsAnd Freedom and Violence the acrobat clownsDo a balancing act on the graves of our sonsWhile the tapdancing Emperor sings "War is peace"And Love the Magician disappears in the funAnd I wave goodbye to murderAnd smile hello to the rain O the new children can`t ------ I am youngTell a foe from a friend ------ I will liveQuick to enchant ------ I am strongAnd so glad to extend ------ I can giveHandfuls of dawn ------ You the strangeTo kaleidoscope men ------ Seed of dayCome from beyond ------ Feel the changeThe Great Wall of Skin ------ Know the Way The bloodless husbands are jesters who listenLike sheep to the shrieks and commands of their wivesAnd the men who aren`t men leave the women aloneSee them all faking love on a bed made of knivesAfraid to discover or trust in their bodiesAnd in secret divorce they will never surviveAnd I wave goodbye to ashesAnd smile hello to a girl O the new children kiss ------ I am youngThey are so proud to learn ------ I will liveWomanwood bliss ------ I am strongAnd the manfire that burns ------ I can giveKnowing no fear ------ You the strangeThey take off their clothes ------ Seed of dayHonest and clear ------ Feel the changeAs a river that flows ------ Know the Way The antique people are fading out slowlyLike newspapers flaming in mind suicideGodless and sexless directionless loonsTheir sham sandcastles dissolve in the tideThey put on their deathmasks and compromise dailyThe new children will live for the elders have diedAnd I wave goodbye to AmericaAnd smile hello to the world
