Say Goodbye

(album: Violent Allies - 2020)

Selfishly I pray to keep you here with me
But I can see you're tired of being half the man you used to be
As your grace gave way you managed to remain
Strong enough for all of us to carry out your days

Crashing waves flooding through you
Wash away

I know you said don't cry and we all see the light
But I deny the sun is setting in your eyes
I know you're shining on brighter than the sun
I realize it's time to say goodbye
To say goodbye

With a leap of faith you always paved the way
Your lust for life was a guiding light cutting through the pain
Some of our regrets are better left unsaid
All of these laws and flaws make love a hopeless cause

Crashing waves flooding through you
Wash away

I know you said don't cry and we all see the light
But I deny the sun is setting in your eyes
I know you're shining on brighter than the sun
I realize it's time to say goodbye
To say goodbye

I know you said don't cry and we all see the light
But I deny the sun is setting in your eyes
I know you're shining on brighter than the sun
I realize it's time to say goodbye

(Crashing waves)
I know you said don't cry and we all see the light
(Wash away)
But I deny the sun is setting in your eyes
(Crashing waves)
I know you're shining on brighter than the sun
(Wash away)
I realize it's time to say goodbye
To say goodbye
