Take my hand before we say goodbye
Could this be the last time we feel like this?
Every thought of home
Lingered with you for so long
Suddenly there is movement
Will you carry on when I'm finally gone?
Hold your head up high and go dancing
Now the teardrops fall down our flesh and soul
As we burst like flames into motion
Tryin' so hard to hold on to it
Can't let go just yet
Be my friend, be my misery
My misery has come to find you now
But I can't turn my head when things go south
My fairytales are over, let me down
Now I can't find no creatures to fly on
Will I turn the page when some company man
Buys my one-way ticket to nowhereland?
Second thoughts rush my head like worms
Am I giving up on your last request?
Singing "don't leave
Don't leave me hanging"
Your misery has gone too far, I know
But I can't fix everything on my own
The fairytale got deep, we almost drowned
But we got out of it alive somehow
All my misery is coming back to me
Face the fire and I can't show you where to start
All my fantasies mean so little finally
I, I, I don't care, I'm always on your side
Won't let this die
Like when I walked out the door
Left you there alone
And I turned my back for the last time
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you cry
But my whole life has been one long goodbye
