Lyrics The Long Goodbye - Downpresser

The Long Goodbye

Don’t mistake a fuse for a wick
If death is coming, let it be quick
Light a candle
Curse the darkness
Either way I tried my hardest
Throw away the key
It’s fine by me
See the tears of fear
Beg for it to disappear
Watch hope wither on the vine
It happens every day, the long goodbye
Can you recognize the pain?
Too late to try
You let the moment fly
Too late you turn your head
You know you’ve said
The long goodbye
I’ll keep treading water
Out past the waves
See how far I can get
From this place
No saving grace
Lost all face, fought to erase
Left with the disguise
And it’s no surprise
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Can you recognize the pain?
Too late to try
