It's All a Long Goodbye

I cannot deny what I say What I want is you I'll see the world fall to its knees, rise and fall Sometimes I wish everything I did wasn't killing time Until we're face to face again You don't look as disappointed as you will with time "It's all right" You'll tell me when everything's stripped away "Understand completely that your everything's not everything to me"

Accomplish nothing, as they're longing to be walking like the walking undead Replaying the same day I know what's gone, and I know what's left When all that you once loved has faded away And all that you longed for in your life has passed you by Nothing that I know'd enhance comforting Will it be worth it? The time spent on this moment? Counting down the days that I wish would live forever Oh my God, what's going on? My own eyes have seen a third of my blood I'll know what's gone and I'll know what's left When all that I once loved has faded away I'll replay the same day again and again Over and over until I am dead I'll die knowing I never waited

All I ever had to lose and all I ever wanted, lies in you The words I say to you are but a fraction of what I mean There is no turning back now Your hand's around my neck, and your hold's so tight that my breath escapes me every time And grip grows stronger all the time Reset the broken Eyes of an angel are illuminating My chest is overflowing And I can't seem to forget the vision of "You gave the heartless heart" Your hands around my neck, you take my breath and I welcome it The air tastes sweeter than before

Run for dear life The approaching storm is bringing the things that I have grown to fear in this world I should have cut my eyes from my head and removed my tongue Severed my hands at the wrists so I'd make it to Heaven Consuming lives, both yours and mine Torn limb from limb Now sacrifice Flood Wash it away Begin to drown The masses are swallowed under And all above the surface of the water burns and is torn limb from limb

I breathe in until the air runs out of oxygen It's cold and my lungs are freezing And if I couldn't see my breath, I'd swear to God that I was dead But the steam provokes my second guessing When I was young I felt that I could be someone Someday something better But that day came and went And life goes on I can't believe I'm here again All the familiar faces blur together Nothing's left and nothing's coming When I was young I felt that I would be so great But now there's nothing to find, cause nothing in life is forever

Turn and walk away there's nothing left for me This place is making me sick Complacent minds bring nothingness My stomach's loneliness won't subside Stuck here again To be as much as a cancer on the face of the world and all who love it The tears on your face won't show, the rain is camouflage But now my blood runs through my teeth, off of my tongue This place as empty as the hollow in your stomach Nothing's as empty as your life If it's such a burden, then do it now, and end it You coward

Deaf eyes seem to watch the actions of definition Human mockery, persuasions never made me feel so sickened Where's your action? Spent stabbing aimlessly at walls with your fists As apparitions They do what they do Because this lonely town (This lonely town) Feels like hospital beds And you let them I've broke my hands for less than this There's nothing left to justify to you With every breath that I exhale I wonder what it's like to feel alive Maybe it's only in this light But you're not a victim No consequence Breeds no conscience

So this is it, what it all amounts to There isn't anyone who wouldn't step on me to get ahead Carnivores are gnawing and the pain won't quit it's borrowing I haven't got the stomach to stomach all your vomiting All we do is trample over Draining spirits It's in our blood So this is it, what it all amounts to, that there isn't anyone who deserves this world

Carve out our tongues so we can eat our words Choke down swallow what our lies have become The bodies of my friends, they stand, they move, they're walking while they're dead The stench of rotten flesh, chalk it up to nothing but what's in our eyes We live as ghosts Have you smelled my new fragrance yet? Knowing my life is nothing but a long goodbye The ground holds the bodies of the dead We pass, people cry, then we are forgotten The caskets decoratives are lost in the soil as we're rotting The end is nigh You go your way and I'll go mine I guess we'll see who was right A long goodbye, I'll visit your grave if you see mine We're all the same here with time

Ink bleeds deeper when pressed hard Soaks through paper and leaves stains on the table You don't look how I pictured You don't look quite how I remember I'll tell myself "I cannot surround me", but Some smiles Both resurrect and drain the life from Drain life from me I don't tell you everything I don't tell you everything Heartless, heartless, heartless The pictures remind me, the pictures remind me The pictures remind me, the pictures remind me I'm calloused to smiles

Very few things hold a place I'll tear through everything and anyone who stands in my way I'm not staying anywhere that hates everything that I love I now know but still I can't believe we're dead I worked so hard for everything I have and I won't let it go I've lost enough to know what matters And any regret I feel could never outweigh any pain I would have felt Had I not done the things I did to get here? If I leave today I'll leave today behind me If I can get out the door and just fucking go I'll leave it behind 'cause all of it reminds me some of these ashes used to be my home You've threatened something that I love And I can't feel your pain, there is no empathy Are my hands numb? Or just so calloused that they feel like they are? The stars were shining so bright, but the light's dimming as I sink out of twilight The snow's falling was so white, that I'm blinded out of cover of the night Life's flashing before my eyes And the bones that make up smiles are my greetings from the sky
