Gone Too Soon
Farewell Echoes: Embracing Change with The Sex Monkeys
Lyrics
He's leaving us today
Expressing the departure of someone today.
This feels so god damn lame
Conveying a strong negative emotion about the situation.
Who am I to crush the mood?
Questioning the right to dampen the atmosphere.
I'll keep my feelings subdued
Choosing to keep emotions restrained.
And send him on his way
Sending the person away but hoping to see them again.
See him some other day
Anticipating a future meeting.
Won't make him hold my hand
Not insisting on physical closeness.
I'll try to understand
Attempting to understand the situation.
I guess that this is the end
Recognizing that this marks the end of a relationship.
Though you'll still be my friend
Acknowledging a continued friendship despite the parting.
So now you'll leave us all behind
Observing the person leaving everyone behind.
Things will be different, I'm not blind
Acknowledging the inevitability of change.
So here is my goodbye to you
Bidding farewell to the departing person.
Take off now and leave the zoo
Encouraging the person to leave and move on.
I seem overzealous
Admitting to excessive enthusiasm or passion.
I'm so fucking jealous
Expressing strong envy or resentment.
You're gone too soon
Reiterating that the person has left prematurely.
He's leaving us tonight
Confirming the departure happening tonight.
It still doesn't feel right
Feeling uneasy about the situation.
Why am I feeling so mad?
Questioning the reason for feeling angry.
We're losing what we had
Acknowledging the loss of a meaningful connection.
My school now feels so small
Reflecting on the diminished size of the social circle.
Without a friend at all
Facing the prospect of being without any friends.
I'll see you later, then
Anticipating a future meeting.
I'll see you later my friend
Repeating the intention to see the person later.
I guess that this is the end
Acknowledging the finality of the situation.
Though you'll still be my friend
Affirming the enduring nature of the friendship.
So now you'll leave us all behind
Observing the person leaving everyone behind.
Things will be different, I'm not blind
Acknowledging the inevitability of change.
So here is my goodbye to you
Bidding farewell to the departing person.
Take off now and leave the zoo
Encouraging the person to leave and move on.
I seem overzealous
Admitting to excessive enthusiasm or passion.
I'm so fucking jealous
Expressing strong envy or resentment.
You're gone too soon
Reiterating that the person has left prematurely.
See you later
Repeating the intention to see the person later.
Don't forget to call me
Requesting the person not to forget to call.
See you later
Repeating the intention to see the person later.
I'll be waiting for it
Expressing anticipation and willingness to wait.
See you later
Repeating the intention to see the person later.
I'm missing June
Expressing a feeling of missing someone in June.
See you later
Repeating the intention to see the person later.
You're gone too soon
Reiterating that the person has left prematurely.
