If You Never Say Goodbye, by PM Dawn (Lyrics)

A song from the X-Files soundtrack “Songs in the Key of X“. It's a surreal, gothic song that applies now more than ever, with 2012 nearly upon us. I looked all over the web to find the correct lyrics for this song and couldn't find them. Apparently they've never been released and every site has its own interpretation—all of which are clearly false by my ears. And so I worked on this with care, determining line-by-line what I hear in order to achieve, I believe, the correct lyrics. If You Never Say Goodbye, by PM Dawn Legs of a goat The head of a man Eyes on the camera Shaking everyone's life Vultures circle And smack their lips The sky goes black As the lightning grips Stars are new A moon without pity As waves of blood Poured over the city It's not a rehearsal Or special effects It's the end of a story It's what happens next And I say, and I say It's coming any second And I say, and I say In the blink of an eye And I say, and I say With a bang and a whimper And say it's ok If you never say goodbye Song of a child Song of a beast As it slouches, it slithers Its way from your face I dreamt that dream But what can it mean? Angels ignored Devoured with grief All the people danced And tore at their clothes The sky caught fire And the oceans froze It wasn't a fable It wasn't a hoax With seventeen devils Speaking of jokes And I say, and I say It's coming any second And I say, and I say In the blink of an eye And I say, if I say With a bang and a whimper And say it's ok If you never say goodbye I saw a chapel Made of gold The light is so blue And the air is so cold Sounds of home on a microphone As the rats kept rhythm On chicken bone People wept And swallowed their dreams They entered like soldiers They're partying as fools It isn't insentient It's not a not a reward It's a black parachute With a noose for a cord And I say, if I say It's coming any second And I say, and I say In the blink of an eye And I say, if I say With a bang and a whimper And say it's ok If you never say goodbye And say it's ok If you never say goodbye And say it's ok If you never say goodbye And say it's ok If you never say goodbye And say it's ok If you never say goodbye And say it's ok If you never say goodbye
