How Do You Say Goodbye?

(album: Engineers - 2005)

How do you say goodbye
To an old friend
You don't want to know

How do you wave goodbye
To a new friend
When you don't want to leave

[chorus]

Craving times ahead
Keeps me hungry every day
With this bitter rush
I can slowly drift ahead
To deal in life instead
Keeps me hung by your sole hand
With a single wish
I can slowly drift ahead

Why do we trade fine lines
For a real truth
We don't want to know

Why did we break our ties
With our old friends
When they don't want to grow

[chorus]

Would you dare
Would you dare fall flat on your face
Get your answer approved
By the state
By the state of friends of that you knew
A friend who went through
