Nolo - Lessons in Departure Lyrics

Why can't you fight
Like your life's on the line
You just fly by design
Always bound to dive
You're burning out, why can't you hide
Just pretend you're alright
We can stand here all night
While you think you're sly
You're burning out so bright
You're burning out so bright
You're just a white light traveler
Tailored for the afterlife
A bee's nest caught in a storm
You've been a pain-seeking magnet
Syringe that can't coagulate
A rain cloud that can't pour
Now if resting is easy
I'm not sad that you'd leave here
I've considered your departure before
Now you're on another frequency
But still somehow you're reaching me
Just not coming in as clear as before
Why can't you fight
Like your life's on the line
You just fly by design
Always bound to dive
You're burning out, why can't you see
All the things you'd bury
Pass the torch you carry
I know you'd think that's alright
You're burning out so bright
You're burning out so bright
You're just a white light traveler
Tailored for the afterlife
A bee's nest caught in a storm
You've been a pain-seeking magnet
Syringe that can't coagulate
A rain cloud that can't pour
Now if resting is easy
I'm not sad that you'd leave here
I've considered your departure before
Now you're on another frequency
But still somehow you're reaching me
Just not coming in as clear as before
I think we always wanted the same thing
A piece of ourselves in a daydream
I'd rather not follow but you seemed so sure to stay the course
I think we both wanted to get it right
A fly on the wall of a better life
The fear at the core of a child inside that ceased to grow
Now that, the tides come in for years
Your tracks are all but washed away
The story's all you hear
The end is finally on its way
The time is getting near
