Goodbye

So you've decided 
There's not much around here to live for 
Though you've denied it 
Reality came knocking at your door 
You tried to fight it 
Tried to substitute your despair 
And now you're standing 
With a washline-noose around your neck 

Goodbye father dearest 
Goodbye mother love 
Goodbye little sister 
Goodbye puppy dog 
There's nothing more for me 
To love or to feel 
My life's a raw deal 
Goodbye 

The room starts to fade 
As the line bites your neck (*) 
And you glimpse the note 
You left on the bed 
Grey turns to black 
As your eyes blindly stare 
Into the Hereafter 
Goodbye 

Now you see yourself hanging 
Like a limps discarded doll 
For a moment 
You hover aimlessly 
Then a dark icy hand 
Seems to beckon you away 
Enter the unknown 
Goodbye 

Goodbye father dearest 
Goodbye mother love 
Goodbye little sister 
Goodbye puppy dog 
There's nothing more for me 
To love or to feel 
My life's an ordeal 
Goodbye.
