Going out to say goodbye


I’m going out to say goodbye
I’m going out to say goodbye
goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye...
Going back in time
Back into my mind
To the memories I thought I’d lost
I’m pulling out my old black box
Seeing all these things that haunt my thoughts
I want to cry but I will not
Standing under the moon this will all be over soon

My friends are all invited and you are to
To the bon fire of the century just me and you
We’ll burn all our belongings photographs last
So we can relive the memories and watch them all pass
(Like the time)


I asked you to prom and you turned me down
I came to your school and you called me a fool
I sacred you to death, so I got up and left
Why won’t you let me in? Do you think it a sin?
Your heart is something I will never win
But this all ends to night
We rejoice it out loud
As all our troubles burn away
The ashes float up to the clouds

My friends are all invited and you are to
To the bon fire of the century just me and you
We’ll burn all our belongings photographs last
So we can relive the memories and watch them all pass
(Like the time)


Your southern drawl warms my heart, but falling for you wasn’t smart
You stood by my side, as I cried
But your friendship faded so fast,
It was something you said would always last
I miss you…

My friends are all invited and you are to
To the bon fire of the century just me and you
We’ll burn all our belongings photographs last
So we can relive the memories and watch them all pass
(Like the time)


You talked to me at my show you wanted to know
If I was the guy your mom said you would find
The guy she saw inside her mind
I’m surprised she didn’t see,
Being the psychic that she be
That I was crazy and that you would soon hate me

But I chose my best mate I chose him over you
He helped my build this fire we’ll burn your things to
All of our belongs how bout your photograph last
So we can relive the memories and watch them all pass


Like the time that you walked by me there and looked me in the eye
I could feel your cold and evil stare running down my spin
It’s as if you wished I were dead, but I could care less
You never know what you gave up you gave up the best.
You’re just like all the rest.
