Mr. Silhouette

So long, Mr. Silhouette

Your parade arrived today

And I watched you gather all your things

And hide them far away



Now you've got me questioning

Just everything you do

You always seem to be moving

But you're never someone new



So long, Mr. Silhouette

I had another taste today

As I watched your soles embrace the snow

As you walked away



You'll remain a firm reminder

In those stolen dents

But I'm afraid they all soon will fade

That doesn't make any sense



So Long, Mr. Silhouette

I lay witness to that rage

Supressing words in your eyes

But there's no need to cage



Now I'm sure that optimism

Was something of the past

Did you know it was a frozen pond

when you made your final cast?



Just a shadow in the darkness

Becoming all too real

As hard as I tried to lock that box

I hope you break the seal



So, so long Mr. Silhouette

I've waited days on end

It's funny how you're searching still

For more mistakes to mend



Now Mr. Silhouette

Is simply Mr. Debt

Because he feels he owes everything

To a world he's never met



I sure hope he comes to see

How incredibly meaningless

His days have come to be

But I'd never question confidence

A chin grazing the sky

So, so long Mr. Silhouette

I've arrived to say goodbye.
