Goodbye the Band - Shimmer

(For the retired investigative journalists)

Green meter reader just found he's not a young God, either
Paying off his ego won't work, so you better snuff that out;
Here's the blood pressure medication and the ether
Diurnalistic urges ride under in the red-hooded girl or boy rider
I'm pretty sure it's naivete;
(Laughs) it's not youth
It's just an excess of pride
Or:

It's dead birds of prayer tweeting
"I was so good
I was so good
Oh I thought I was so good
I thought it would be better with me
But oh, all my goodness wasn't good enough to stop physics."

While I, the signal transmitter with that slightly shell-shocked but undreaming affect-face
Think who would want to be remembered and/or thinks they could unfix such a willfully Fixed place?
There is one text that comes through only through these ringing tones!
When you see the cancer inside outside, you lost the phone line to home
But now you know: this was never home!

Dead birds of prayer tweeting
"I was so good
I was so good
Oh I thought I was so good
I thought it would be better with me
But oh, all my goodness wasn't good enough to stop physics."

Wasn't enough!
