Goodbye for Good Songtext
von Xiu Xiu

For certain the world doesn′t need you
Plants find you disgusting
Their benevolent keeper
They would grow from your cracking jaw
If they could get there
You think they are beautiful
They are waiting for you to suffocate

Goodbye for good
Goodbye for good

A sandwich bag of barbiturates
In an empty yogurt container
Hidden beneath a little stack of bricks
Beside the basement water heater


Octopus, Porcupine, Ottoman, Platypus, Opossum, Pelican
Wish for nothing more than that you and you and you and you
Were gone

Goodbye for good
Goodbye for good
Goodbye for good

Goodbye for good
Goodbye for good
Goodbye for good

The world doesn't need you
It could have been anything
Without your curious fingers
Caressing the meadow
Patting the chaos

Bergamot, Marigold, Daffodil
Hyacinth, Dahlia, Woodland Phlox

Azalea, Barrenwort, Goodbye for good
