Geese

Give my things
To the ones that you love
And let them be worn

Feed my geese
And water the trees
To your favorite song

Quietly retreat into the wild
Ardently believed it as a child

That I would never come around again
Even if the holy choir sang
Even if the gilded church bells rang
Deep into the quiet night and then

One day I’ll wonder
What song it was that you would sing to me
Try to remember
'Cause I’ve forgotten half my life

How did we get here?
How the hell would anybody know?
What were we doing?
Whatever happened to the plan?

Golden honey, milk and fireflies
Savor every moment in your eyes

Cause I would never come around again
Even if the holy choir sang
Even if the gilded church bells rang
Deep into the quiet night and then

Something always held me back
Something I’ll never know
Something always brought me back
Something I’ll never know
