Say Goodbye To The World You Destroyed
You gave me your word,
and I held onto it for dear life.
But why do I hold on when I'm already dead?
You took yourself and all of me
when you walked away.
Gone with words so gentle and tempting.
I'll watch you walk further and further,
with every step away from your past,
you're taking my future.
I'll stay as it all falls apart.
You take the memories,
and I'll take the pain.
and I held onto it for dear life.
But why do I hold on when I'm already dead?
You took yourself and all of me
when you walked away.
Gone with words so gentle and tempting.
I'll watch you walk further and further,
with every step away from your past,
you're taking my future.
I'll stay as it all falls apart.
You take the memories,
and I'll take the pain.
