My friend, I can't explain this
My world is changed forever
And I'm scared I'll drag you down if I should fall
It's hard to see the gla** as half-full, instead of half-empty
When you know we both deserve to have it all
I won't subject you to this drama as my life gets an overhaul
So goodbye, my old friend
I hope that if I see you again
We can just go on, pretending that life is fair
I hope you love what you do
I hope that someone's tending to you
The way I was supposed to, when I was there
Goodbye, my old friend
My friend, it's still hard to accept
That now the air between us
Is frozen; what a tangled web we weave
When once we were as sisters
Reduced to less than strangers
With a stalemate gameface on, for I believe
That when the four winds reveal our true colors, we may not like what we percieve
So goodbye, my old friend
I hope that if I see you again
We can give each other space with cordial form
I could have been your ally still
I tried to help your joy be fulfilled
But now there's a chill that never can be warmed
Goodbye, my old friend
My friend, according to the book
This parting is temporary
Your essential being isn't really gone
Were you scared on your last journey?
Did you suffer long in darkness?
Will you greet me when it's my turn to pa** on?
It's impossible not to be saddened as you greet the eternal dawn
So goodbye, my old friend
I hope that if I see you again
You will recognize me past my physical array
They say we walk into the light
And all souls as one they unite
So I know it's just goodnight when I say
Goodbye, my old friend
Goodbye, my old friend
