My Goodbye - Jorge Rivera-Herrans

Lyrics by：Jorge Rivera-Herrans

Composed by：Jorge Rivera-Herrans

You are reckless

Sentimental at best

That's not a teaching of mine

You've grown soft

Your dead friends can attest

Hey

Put your emotions aside

You're a warrior

Meant to lead the rest

I don't know where I went wrong

But I warned you

And you failed the test

So now I'm gone

This way you'll know what your place is

This way you can't 'cross the line

This way when all is over

You'll keep yours and I'll keep mine

This way you won't disappoint me

This way you won't waste my time

This way I'll close the door

Consider this as my goodbye

That's just like you

Why should I be surprised

Selfish and prideful and vain

Unlike you

Every time someone dies

I'm left to deal with the strain

What's a title

That a Goddess could lend

If I'll never sleep at night

I'll remind you

I saw you as a friend

But now we're done

This way you're out of my head now

This way you won't plague my life

This way when all is done

You're out of sight and out of mind

This way you get what you wanted

This way you can save your time

This way you close the door

And have your d**n goodbye

You're not looking for a mentor

I'm not looking for a friend

I mistook you for a general

What a waste of effort spent

At least I know what I'm fighting for

While you're fighting to be known

Since you claim you're so much wiser

Why's your life spent all alone

You're alone

One day you'll hear what I'm saying

One day you might understand

One day but not today

For after all you're

Just a man

This day you sever your own head

This day you cut the line

This day you lost it all

Consider this as my goodbye

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Consider this as my goodbye

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

This is my goodbye

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Consider this as my goodbye

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

This is my goodbye
