Say Goodbye
Claseria Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
For just a minute
My Past
You've done something to me
You've owned me
My Past
For far too long
My Past
It's time now
To put you to rest
So I'll bury you in the ground
That's where you're supposed to be
That's where I can finally breathe
And I'll take this fear that I found
And give it back to you
There's nothing left to do but
Say Goodbye
I have been lied to
I have been brought to
My last
But ain't no more should have's
Ain't no more could have's
Don't ask
'Cause I was wrong
You don't live on
You're gone
This is my last chance
To let go and move on
So I'll bury you in the ground
That's where you're supposed to be
That's where I can finally breathe
And I'll take this fear that I found
And give it back to you
There's nothing left to do but
Say Goodbye
So I'll bury you in the ground
That's where you're supposed to be
That's where I can finally breathe
And I'll take this fear that I found
And give it back to you
There's nothing left to do but
Say Goodbye
