Dark Desires Unveiled: Campfire Girls' Melodic Farewell
Lyrics
Black is the night
Black is symbolic of darkness or a challenging time.
And black is your heart
Black heart suggests emotional coldness or negativity.
You finally got it right
Speaker acknowledges someone has made a correct decision.
I finally fell apart
Speaker confesses to finally breaking down emotionally.
And maybe someday I'll know what you meant
Expresses hope of understanding in the future, when things are clearer.
If the sun ever comes up again
Reference to a potential brighter future, possibly after a difficult period.
You wanted to live
Desire to live fully before facing a difficult situation.
Before we had to break
Acknowledges an impending separation or breakup.
If only I could give
Wishing to give more, but constrained by limitations.
As much as you can take
Recognition of the other person's capacity to endure difficulties.
And maybe someday you'll know what I meant
Hope that the other person will understand the speaker's perspective someday.
If the sun ever comes up again
Reiteration of hope for a brighter future, emphasizing clarity.
Goodbye, my gun

Goodbye again
Repetition of the farewell, emphasizing the difficulty of parting.
You've laid me to rest
Acknowledges a metaphorical death, perhaps a relationship ending.
With money left to burn
Despite challenges, there is still unused resources ("money left to burn").
So put another pin
Suggests a superficial or ornamental addition to the other person's attire.
Upon your fancy shirt
Symbolic act with a pin on a fancy shirt, perhaps representing a memorable event.
And maybe someday you'll know how it felt
Expresses a wish for the other person to understand the speaker's emotions.
And I'll be wakin' next to someone else
Implies the speaker moving on and waking up next to someone new.
Goodbye, my friend
A final farewell to a friend, emphasizing the difficulty of parting.
Goddbye again
Repetition of the farewell, underscoring the emotional weight of goodbye.
Goodbye, my gun

Goodbye again
Final repetition of goodbye, concluding the emotional separation.
