Goodbye

So you've decided
There's not much around here to live for
Though you've denied it
Reality came knocking at your door
You tried to fight it
Tried to substitute your despair
And now you're standing
With a washline-noose around your neck

Goodbye father dearest
Goodbye mother love
Goodbye little sister
Goodbye puppy dog
There's nothing more for me
To love or to feel
My life's a raw deal
Goodbye

The room starts to fade
As the line bites your neck (*)
And you glimpse the note
You left on the bed
Grey turns to black
As your eyes blindly stare
Into the Hereafter
Goodbye

Now you see yourself hanging
Like a limps discarded doll
For a moment
You hover aimlessly
Then a dark icy hand
Seems to beckon you away
Enter the unknown
Goodbye

Goodbye father dearest
Goodbye mother love
Goodbye little sister
Goodbye puppy dog
There's nothing more for me
To love or to feel
My life's an ordeal
Goodbye.
