about
I hesitate to give away too much about my intentions in writing this song, as past "misinterpretations" by others have lent beautiful nuance to the lyrics in my mind. Let it suffice that this song is somewhat metaphorical to me, which certainly doesn't mean it must be so for you.
lyrics
Hello old friend, it's time for goodbye;
Time for goodbye.
Goodbye.
We've had our fun, but I'm headed home;
I'm headed home.
I've been talking of leaving this town for twenty years now,
But as I lay dying here on the ground,
I'm not quite down and out;
I'm not down and out.
Hello again, I'm moving on;
I'm moving on,
Moving on.
Follow if you want, but I've set my course,
'Cause no, i'm not yours anymore.
I've been talking of leaving this town for twenty years now,
But as I lay dying here on the ground,
I know I'm not down and out;
I'm not down and out.
'Cause I've got a home that I'm headed for,
And you can't stand in my way;
And I've got a home that's headed for me,
And you can't stand in its way;
No, you won't stand in its way.
Hello old friend, it's time for goodbye.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.

The Kept Collective is a group of independent artists (musicians, dancers, poets, and playwrites) tucked away in the Northeast corner of Tennessee looking to make the world a more thoughtful, hopeful, and beautiful place.
This album is a sonic adventure from start to finish, encompassing a wide range of styles from song to song (and even within the songs themselves). Treat yourself to this mellifluous journey. The Kept Collective
