The Goodbye Song

He woke up early

The wind howling neath the skin

He saw the walls all closing in

This is how it all begins

He felt the life go out once again

Just like a goodbye song

That goes on too long

And did it please her

Was it right and was I strong

Was it good and is good all wrong

Is good enough to light the grey zone

If I could spend just one night alone

I'd be myself I swear I'd get out of there

I'd do it once if I really cared

The light is out the thrill is gone

He felt the life go out once again

Just like a goodbye song

That goes on too long

And if I breathe it'll all come to end

Just like a goodbye song that goes on too long

And if I breathe it'll all come to end

Where has it gone, where has it gone

Where have I gone

So we're no different

It won't be branded on skin

You won't feel nothing you won't feel bad

Guess the first time is the hardest

It's like a key that locks and locks

And I don't like oh the place I'm in

It's a place of whispers of shadows and lies

It's the new world that I live in

I feel the life go out once again

Just like a goodbye song

That goes on too long

And if I breathe it'll all come to end

Where have I gone

Where has it gone

And did it happen

It all seems so far behind

Can I do it just one more time

Only once and then it's over

I can choose I got all the time

And when I see her man, will she understand

I can keep it in once again

Where have I gone

Where have I gone

I feel the life go out once again

Just like a goodbye song

That goes on too long

And if I breathe it'll all come to end

Just like a goodbye song

That goes on too long

And if I breathe it'll all come to end

Where have I gone

Where have I gone

Where has it gone
