I know I promised you I would see it through
Please forgive me it's so hard to even breath anymore
Don't hold it against me, Remember I love you, forever true
I may looked like I never cared but I did and that I swear
I was never lazy but deeply blue to the depths you never knew
And now as I take my last swing I plead again I love you.

As my eyes swell up with tears
I think of all the stolen years
And it took a real man to face these fears
And let it all go and hope you'll conquer
Your loneliness, without me here
your solemnness and your future so near

As low as I can go
Seems to be the way the river flows
As solo as I can be
Looking up at the solemn trees
looking down at my bended knees
drowning in a pool of clear blue sea

As I look back at you
as everything turns to dust and salt
I see a person so true
And I see me so full of every lie that's bought
And it's you I forever sought
And I failed even you in the end, I never fought

I let the demons come and have me
I let the angels forget and ignore me
I let the screaming have my ears so loudly
I forgot who you were, I was supposed to protect and serve
and now you're getting nothing you deserve
But more pain and more vain words

I love you baby, Goodbye
I couldn't stay in, But I tried
Good night.
