Goodbye And Hello - Tim Buckley
The antique people are down in the dungeons
Run by machines and afraid of the tax
Their heads in the grave
and their hands on their eyes
Hauling their hearts around circular tracks

Pretending forever their masquerade towers
Are not really riddled with widening cracks

And I wave goodbye to iron

And smile hello to the air

O the new children dance
I am young
All around the balloons
I will live

Swaying by chance
I am strong
To the breeze from the moon
I can give

Painting the sky
You the strange
With the colors of sun
Seed of day
Freely they fly
Feel the change
As all become one
Know the Way Know the Way

The velocity addicts explode on the highways
Ignoring the journey and moving so fast
Their nerves fall apart
and they gasp but can't breathe
They run from the cops of the skeleton past
Petrified by tradition in a nightmare they stagger
Into nowhere at all and they look up aghast

And I wave goodbye to speed

And smile hello to a rose

O the new children play
I am young
Under the juniper trees
I will live

Sky blue or gray
I am strong
They continue at ease
I can give

Moving so slow
You the strange
That serenely they can
Seed of day
Gracefully grow
Feel the change
And yes still understand
Know the Way Know the Way Know the Way

The king and the queen
in their castle of billboards
Sleepwalk down the hallways dragging behind
All their possessions and transient treasures
As they go to worship the electronic shrine
On which is playing the late late commercial
In that hollowest house of the opulent blind

And I wave goodbye to Mammon

And smile hello to a stream

O the new children buy
I am young
All the world for a song
I will live

Without a dime
I am strong
To which they belong
I can give

Nobody owns
You the strange
Anything anywhere
Seed of day
Everyone's grown
Feel the change
Up so big they can share
Know the Way Know the Way Know the Way

The vaudeville generals cavort on the stage
And shatter their audience with submachine guns

And Freedom and Violence the acrobat clowns

Do a balancing act on the graves of our sons

While the tapdancing Emperor sings
War is peace
And Love the Magician disappears in the fun

And I wave goodbye to murder

And smile hello to the rain

O the new children can't
I am young
Tell a foe from a friend
I will live

Quick to enchant
I am strong
And so glad to extend
I can give

Handfuls of dawn
You the strange
To kaleidoscope men
Seed of day

Come from beyond
Feel the change
The Great Wall of Skin
Know the Way Know the Way

The bloodless husbands are jesters who listen
Like sheep to the shrieks
and commands of their wives
And the men who aren't men
leave the women alone
See them all faking love on a bed made of knives
Afraid to discover or trust in their bodies
And in secret divorce they will never survive
And I wave goodbye to ashes
And smile hello to a girl

O the new children kiss
I am young
They are so proud to learn
I will live
Womanwood bliss
I am strong
And the manfire that burns
I can give
Knowing no fear
You the strange
They take off their clothes
Seed of day
Honest and clear
Feel the change
As a river that flows
Know the Way Know the Way Know the Way

The antique people are fading out slowly
Like newspapers flaming in mind suicide
Godless and sexless directionless loons
Their sham sandcastles dissolve in the tide
They put on their deathmasks and compromise daily
The new children will live
for the elders have died

And I wave goodbye to America

And smile hello to the world
