To be understood is the greatest gift
That one ever could receive in this world
So seldom to find a kindred bond
And when it is gone, can never be replaced
Goodbye
You're leaving this world, behind
I stand where you stood, you've gone away
Leaving a void that always will remain
The words you would speak, are in my mind
A joyous refrain; the memory of your life
Staring at my grave, somewhere in the sky
Hope I don't fall in
Follow, you followed me here
A failing heart is how the story starts:
Don't make me read it again
Like crashing cars, our frames are torn apart
And I'm defeated again
Follow, you followed me here
