lyrics

he thought about his family, his blood waiting at home
waiting to spend more time with the old man
he thought about the evenings in the ataraxic air
movie on TV, little book in hand

he turned around to face the room
to switch off the lights for his last time
the boys will hold down the fort for him
but it's never going to be the same
maybe change is fine
maybe change forgives
he touched the light switch and smiled
long live
