Last Goodbye

(album: Shine - 2009)

What were you trying to find
Can't live at all with nothing to hide
It only brings anger when
You're bringing it home again

Here's to another last goodbye

Keeping this doubt at a distance
How long have we fumbled
And who cries innocence
Skin's become leather
So we don't feel at all

We're tearing these holes inside
Oh how the emptiness drags at the mind
We've cauterized the wounds so they don't bleed

Here's to another last goodbye
You know it's been too hard when tears run dry
So fill up your glasses and toast one down
Oh down it is
Here's to another last goodbye

How can we stop telling lies?
It comes so easy like dead to the flies
You say you don't notice
What an enemy that you've made of me

We keep hope a bird on a string
Don't fear it escaping we'll cut off it's wings
I'd tell you it's over but why say what we both see

Here's to another last goodbye
You know it's been too hard when tears run dry
So fill up your glasses and toast one down
Oh down it is
Here's to another last goodbye
