lyrics

Verse 1
You open your eyes and are instantly blinded by smoke and ash in the air
You let out a scream but you can’t hear a thing as your eyes dart around in despair
The sirens ring out as you cover your mouth and you close your eyes to pray
Fear paralyzes, your mind scrutinizes as you realize your fate

Chorus
Because you never thought that you would be alone
When you reached your end
The last thing you hear is a gentle goodbye
As it passes your lips

Your eyes shut tight, you calm your mind,
this time you find it’s easier to say one final word, goodbye

Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye

Verse 2
The windows smashed out and your fear starts to mount as you realize you can’t feel a thing
All you can see is a chaotic scene as your ears start to suddenly ring
Metal is twisted, your body constricted as they try to find you now
Your mind started racing and hope started fading as cries are heard all around

Outro
One last goodbye now don’t start to cry
when you think of me tonight
Keep me in your heart and don’t you start thinking about being apart
Know that each day that I’m not far away
And I’ll always be here to stay
Keep me in your mind and soon you will find the last thing you hear is a simple word goodbye
