The Way I Say Goodbye

This is the way I say goodbye

I could fight on, weather the storm
Wipe the wind-driven rain from my eyes
Fallen on knees, beg for release
Just succumb to the shadows inside
I'd rather make just like a comet tail
Shed the skin and lift the veil
Fling me out into the unknown
But I won't go alone

I'm telling you
Maybe I'm weak, maybe I'm wrong
Or maybe it was never the question at all
Maybe it's time to leave the past behind
And this is the way I say goodbye

I could slam doors but much like the sword
I just fall on the words that I say
And I could shake hands, bring water and the sand
But the seasons, they still never change
I don't feel the need to compromise
Cross the T's and dot the I's
Fling me out into the unknown
I won't go alone

I'm telling you
Maybe I'm weak, maybe I'm wrong
Or maybe it was never the question at all
Maybe it's time to leave the past behind
And this is the way I say goodbye
Oh-oh

I don't feel the need to compromise
Cross the T's and dot the I's
Fling me out into the unknown
I can't go on

I'm telling you
Maybe I'm weak, maybe I'm wrong
Or maybe it was never the question at all
Maybe it's time to leave the past behind (oh)

I'm telling you
Maybe I'm weak, maybe I'm wrong
Or maybe it was never the question at all
Maybe it's time to leave the past behind
And this is the way I say goodbye
Oh-oh, oh
Send me out alone
Fling me out into the unknown
