Currently listening to...
...this beautiful song "Say Goodbye" by Washed Out (the nom de musique of Ernest Greene Jr)...
Slow down, it's over now
I don't know why you cry
It's alright, keep going now
Just leave it all behind
I hope you'll find a way
You can love yourself again
I know it's hard sometimes
If you're strong, I think you'll find
All you need to say goodbye
Say goodbye
Say goodbye, say goodbye
Say goodbye, say goodbye
I know you've tried
I know you've failed each time
It's alright, keep going now
Just know you're worth the fight
Say goodbye, say goodbye
Say goodbye, say goodbye
Thematically--and sonically too--"Say Goodbye" reminds me of the equally beautiful "New Jade" by Caribou (the nom de musique of Dan Snaith). Both are songs offering tender support and a better future for someone who needs it...
Now you’re gone for good,
Been through more than anyone should,
And in time you’ll see,
How much better off you will be
And don’t you believe what he said,
Locked up inside of his head,
You’ve got your children with you,
To give you the strength to get through.
It’s like a new first kiss,
Yeah you can start feeling glad,
‘Cause you’re not going to miss,
Something that you’ve never had,
Don’t you believe what he says,
It’s always lies anyways,
You’ve been waiting for so long,
And now he’s finally gone.
