About us: We’re a 2-man band/studio project, 100% self-produced – we write, compose, perform, record, mix, and master all elements of our music. Control freaks? Yes. Our story began 15 years earlier in the high-school metal band we formed together. We tirelessly practiced and gigged and had visions of rock stardom. Soon after high school ended, careers and families slowly took over, and by our early 20’s we had let our musical aspirations fade into the background. But we never lost touch, never stopped writing, and after 10 years we finally decided to stop reminiscing and start recording an album, “Burn the Rez”, released in 2014.
Last Goodbye
Burn the Rez Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And will we waste away for nothing
The world moves on around us when we fall
Our lives are quietly erased
As all our ends keep drawing closer
I'm reaching for each disappearing day
And Live a dream that we're never apart?
I'll spend forever there with you
We'll create our own world
I promised I wouldn't let you go
To keep us together, away from it all
And We could hide so far inside
That we'll say no last goodbye
Is every fortune ripped away
Are we're left standing empty handed
If only broken promises remain
I feel so stranded and alone
And I Can't believe it's almost over
Soon like faded memories we're gone
So we hold this moment in time
To Live a dream that we're never apart?
I'll spend forever there with you
We'll create our own world
I promised I wouldn't let you go
To keep us together, away from it all
And We could hide so far inside
That we'll say no last goodbye
When you feel hopeless inside
All the suffering in silence
In the nights lied awake
After your fires have burned
And our dying dream seems over
Under skies cold and gray
Will the sadness surround us
Will it finally drown us?
Will it take you away
Far away from me?
But I'll be right there beside you
If you're lost I could find you
I'd could carry you the way
So we hold this moment in time
To Live a dream that we're never apart?
I'll spend forever there with you
We'll create our own world
I promised I wouldn't let you go
To keep us together, away from it all
And We could hide so far inside
That we'll say no last goodbye
The song "Last Goodbye" by Burn the Rez is a poignant and introspective exploration of the transience of life and the need to hold onto the precious moments we share with the people we love. The lyrics speak to the fear of being forgotten and the longing for some sort of permanence in a world that is constantly in flux. The opening lines reflect a sense of uncertainty and even despair in the face of life's impermanence: "Is there no meaning to it all / And will we waste away for nothing / The world moves on around us when we fall." The chorus, with its declaration that the singer will "spend forever there with you / We'll create our own world" highlights the intense desire for connection and the hope that love can transcend the limitations of time and space.
The second verse of the song reflects a sense of regret and loss, with the recognition that all things must come to an end, and that often what we thought would last forever turns out to be fleeting. The lines "If only broken promises remain / I feel so stranded and alone / And I can't believe it's almost over / Soon like faded memories we're gone" evoke a sense of melancholy and a yearning for something more lasting.
The final verse of the song is perhaps the most hopeful, with the assurance that even in the face of sorrow and loss, we need not be alone, and that love can endure even in the darkest of times. The lines "When you feel hopeless inside / All the suffering in silence / In the nights lied awake / But I'll be right there beside you / If you're lost I could find you / I'd could carry you the way" offer a sense of comfort and companionship, a reminder that even when the world feels like it is falling apart, there are people who care and who will always be there to help us pick up the pieces.
Overall, "Last Goodbye" is a powerful and moving tribute to the power of love and the resilience of the human spirit. It speaks to the universal experience of loss and the need to find meaning and connection in the face of life's uncertainties and challenges.

Is there no meaning to it all
Questioning the purpose and significance of life
And will we waste away for nothing
Wondering if our existence is futile
The world moves on around us when we fall
Life continues on, even when we are struggling
Our lives are quietly erased
The fleeting nature of human life
As all our ends keep drawing closer
The inevitability of death
I'm reaching for each disappearing day
Trying to hold onto every moment and make it count
Can we hold this moment in time
Desiring to freeze time and stay in a perfect moment forever
And Live a dream that we're never apart?
Longing for a love that transcends distance and lasts forever
I'll spend forever there with you
Promising eternal devotion to a loved one
We'll create our own world
Building a world of love and happiness with someone special
I promised I wouldn't let you go
Committing to never abandoning a loved one
To keep us together, away from it all
Eliminating all external factors that could tear the couple apart
And We could hide so far inside
Finding refuge and safety in each other
That we'll say no last goodbye
The love between them is so strong that it will never fade
Are we're left standing empty handed
Feeling as though all they have is lost or taken from them
If only broken promises remain
Regretting unkept promises and broken trust
I feel so stranded and alone
Suffering alone in emotional distress
And I Can't believe it's almost over
Realizing that time is running out and the end is near
Soon like faded memories we're gone
Acknowledging that they will eventually be forgotten
When you feel hopeless inside
Describing the feeling of crushing hopelessness and despair
All the suffering in silence
Enduring pain and heartache without being able to express it
In the nights lied awake
Tossing and turning at night, unable to find peace
After your fires have burned
When all passion and desire have been exhausted
And our dying dream seems over
Acknowledging the end of a shared dream or goal
Under skies cold and gray
Depicting a dreary and bleak atmosphere
Will the sadness surround us
Wondering if sorrow and grief will always be present
Will it finally drown us?
Fearing that the sadness and pain will consume them completely
Will it take you away
Worrying that the despair will separate them from loved ones
But I'll be right there beside you
Promising to support and comfort a loved one in their darkest moments
If you're lost I could find you
Vowing to be a guiding light in times of confusion and disorientation
I'd could carry you the way
Willingness to bear the burden of a loved one's pain

BURN THE REZ (2018) – LAST GOODBYE (Traducción)
Is there no meaning to it all
¿No hay sentido para todo esto?
And will we waste away for nothing
¿Y nos consumiremos por nada?
The world moves on around us when we fall
El mundo sigue adelante a nuestro alrededor cuando caemos
Our lives are quietly erased
Nuestras vidas son discretamente erradicadas
As all our ends keep drawing closer
Mientras todos nuestros fines siguen acercándose
I'm reaching for each disappearing day
Estoy recurriendo a cada día desaparecido
Can we hold this moment in time
¿Podemos mantener este momento en el tiempo?
And live a dream that we're never apart?
¿Y vivir un sueño del que nunca nos alejamos?
I'll spend forever there with you
Pasaré el tiempo para siempre allí contigo
We'll create our own world
Crearemos nuestro propio mundo
I promised I wouldn't let you go
Prometí que no te dejaría ir
To keep us together, away from it all
Para mantenernos juntos, lejos de todo
And we could hide so far inside
Y podríamos ocultarnos tan adentro
That we'll say no last goodbye
Que no diremos el último adiós
Is every fortune ripped away
¿Está toda fortuna arrancada?
Are we're left standing empty handed
¿Nos hemos quedado con las manos vacías?
If only broken promises remain
Si sólo las promesas rotas permanecen
I feel so stranded and alone
Me siento tan desamparado y solo
And I can't believe it's almost over
Y no puedo creer que casi haya acabado
Soon like faded memories we're gone
Pronto como recuerdos borrosos desapareceremos
So we hold this moment in time
Así que mantenemos este momento en el tiempo
To live a dream that we're never apart?
¿Para vivir un sueño del que nunca nos alejamos?
I'll spend forever there with you
Pasaré el tiempo para siempre allí contigo
We'll create our own world
Crearemos nuestro propio mundo
I promised I wouldn't let you go
Prometí que no te dejaría ir
To keep us together, away from it all
Para mantenernos juntos, lejos de todo
And we could hide so far inside
Y podríamos ocultarnos tan adentro
That we'll say no last goodbye
Que no diremos el último adiós
When you feel hopeless inside
Cuando te sientas sin esperanza en tu interior
All the suffering in silence
Todo el sufrimiento en silencio
In the nights lied awake
En las noches yaciste despierto
After your fires have burned
Después de tus fuegos hayan ardido
And our dying dream seems over
Y nuestro sueño moribundo parezca acabado
Under skies cold and gray
Bajo cielos fríos y grises
Will the sadness surround us
¿Nos rodeará la tristeza?
Will it finally drown us?
¿Esto finamente nos ahogará?
Will it take you away far away from me?
¿Esto te llevará muy lejos de mí?
But I'll be right there beside you
Pero estaré enseguida allí a tu lado
If you're lost I could find you
Si estás perdida podría encontrarte
I'd could carry you the way
Podría llevarte al camino
So we hold this moment in time
Así que mantenemos este momento en el tiempo
To live a dream that we're never apart?
¿Para vivir un sueño del que nunca nos alejamos?
I'll spend forever there with you
Pasaré el tiempo para siempre allí contigo
We'll create our own world
Crearemos nuestro propio mundo
I promised I wouldn't let you go
Prometí que no te dejaría ir
To keep us together, away from it all
Para mantenernos juntos, lejos de todo
And we could hide so far inside
Y podríamos ocultarnos tan adentro
That we'll say no last goodbye
Que no diremos el último adiós
