Though they have accomplished a fair amount since jumping on the metaphorical βband wagonβ, Fighting the Villain proves to exist as a relentless machine. βLast Goodbyeβ is the most recent and polished single, mixed and mastered by none other than Andrew Wade (A Day To Remember, VersaEmerge). 2011 will undoubtedly be a hectic year for these guys. You can count on a southern California tour as well as a brand new EP as soon as summer rolls around; yet another step up the ladder. Fighting the Villain is about striving for the impossible, and theyβre anything from falling short.
Last Goodbye
Fighting The Villain Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With you right by my side
I think of all the things
That you said in my life
I'll Never
You can count me out this time
Count me out
You can count me out this time
Count me out
This is the last time for goodbyes whoa
Here we are again
Trying to put things back
You don't know how it feels
When you bleed alone
You can count me out this time
Count me out
This is the last time for goodbyes whoa
You can count me out this time
Count me out
This is the last time for goodbyes whoa
Whoa
Nothing that you do
Nothing that you do
And I'll never be the one
That you call
Nothing that you do
Nothing that you say
Nothing that you do
And I'll never be the one
That you call
Nothing that you do
Nothing that you say
Nothing that you do
And I'll never be the one
That you call
The lyrics of Fighting The Villain's song "Last Goodbye" convey a sense of finality and resignation after a relationship has broken down. The singer is lying down and looking up at the sky with someone who was once close to them, but there is now a distance between them. The singer recalls the things that were said to them during the relationship, but acknowledges that this is the end and they will never be called upon again. The chorus emphasizes this sense of finality, with the repeated refrain of "count me out this time" and "this is the last time for goodbyes".
In the second verse, the singer describes the difficulty of trying to repair the relationship and feeling alone in the process. Despite this, they remain resolved in their decision to move on and not be a part of this person's life anymore. The repetition of "nothing that you do" emphasizes the idea that there is nothing that this person can do or say to change the singer's mind.
Overall, "Last Goodbye" is a powerful expression of the end of a relationship and the difficulty of moving on. The imagery of looking up at the sky suggests a feeling of being small and insignificant in the face of something larger, and the repetition of the chorus emphasizes the finality of this decision.

I lay and stare into the sky
I am lying down and gazing at the sky
With you right by my side
You are present beside me
I think of all the things
I am reflecting on all the things
That you said in my life
You spoke those words which impacted my life
I'll Never
I will not do that thing
You can count me out this time
Exclude me this time
Count me out
Exclude me
This is the last time for goodbyes whoa
This is the final instance of parting
Here we are again
We have reached this point again
Trying to put things back
We are attempting to reconcile and restore things
You don't know how it feels
You are unaware of the emotions I am experiencing
When you bleed alone
No one is there to help you when you are suffering greatly
Nothing that you do
Your actions do not have an impact
And I'll never be the one
I will not become the person
That you call
That you reach out to for help or support
Nothing that you say
Your words do not have an impact
