Songs: Saying goodbye

by Shawn Harris

Created on: December 02, 2009

''The Goodness of Man Verse the Destruction of Humanity"


I trusted you to do what you had to do

You said it's over and now the sheets are torn

What's left of me is buried in this grave

ten feet below where there's nowhere to go!


I couldn't done anything if my hands weren't..

always tied behind my back

Now I finally know what's wrong, we can't go on..


I said farewell and my throat swelled up

I knew I was wrong from the minute I met you..

What happened to us?


We used to be so beautiful, but the tide destroyed our hearts

and then the devil wrapped around you and coiled his tongue around your throat

Nobody saw it coming but everybody still knew.

All this time they've been laughing at me behind these deaf ears.


I couldn't done anything if my hands weren't..

always tied behind my back

Now I finally know what's wrong, we can't go on..


Now that they clipped my wings, goodbye means everything

Now that they look at me behind masks of uncertainty

They all knew I couldn't be.. with someone so good

So now all I can say, is farewell as my throat begins to swell

You brought me this hell...


I couldn't done anything if my hands weren't..


always tied behind my back

Now I finally know what's wrong, we can't go on..


We cant go on..
