If You Never Say Goodbye Lyrics by P.M. Dawn

Songs in the Key of X: Music from and Inspired by The X-Files

1996

[Verse 1]
Legs of a cat, head of a man
Eyes on the camera, shaking everyone's hands
Vultures circle and smack their lips
The sky goes black as the lightning rips
The stars are new, the moon without pity
As waves of blood roll over the city
It's not a rehearsal or special effects
It's the end of a story, it's what happens next
[Chorus]
And I say it's coming any second
If I say, and I say in the blink of an eye
And I say with a bang and I whimper
And I say it's okay if you never say goodbye
[Verse 2]
Son of a child, song of a beast
As it slouches and slithers, it's waiting for the feast
I dreamt a dream, but what can it mean?
Angels in love devoured the queen
All the people danced tore at their clothes
The sky was a fire and the oceans froze
It wasn't a fable, it wasn't a hoax
It was seventeen devils just making up jokes
[Chorus]
And I say it's coming any second
If I say, and I say in the blink of an eye
And I say with a bang and I whimper
And I say it's okay if you never say goodbye
[Verse 3]
I saw a chapel made of gold
The light was so blue and the air was so cold
A seraphim howled on a microphone
As the rats kept rhythm on a chicken bone
People wept and swallowed their jewels
Entered like soldiers, departed as fools
It isn't a sentence, it's not a reward
It's a black parachute with a noose for a cord
[Chorus]
And I say it's coming any second
If I say, and I say in the blink of an eye
And I say with a bang and I whimper
And I say it's okay if you never say goodbye
[Outro]
And I say it's okay if you never say goodbye
And I say it's okay if you never say goodbye
And I say it's okay if you never say goodbye
And I say it's okay if you never say goodbye
And I say it's okay if you never say goodbye
