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.
