Say Goodbye
The Prom Queen Lyrics

Storm clouds hanging over head
The situation is gloomy.

Offer not the slightest bit of comfort
There is no hope or optimism.

For the first time in days
Things have been difficult.

I wait to discover
I want to know what went wrong.

Disasters that I've slept through
Problems that I didn't even realize were happening.

While I felt so alive
Despite everything, I was happy.

So we say goodbye
We are ending things.

Heartstrings severed just as quick
Our connection was cut suddenly.

As they were discovered
As we became aware of them.

I'll break my own fall to keep you picture perfect
I will do anything to maintain the illusion that everything is perfect.

Just don't wake me up now
I don't want to face reality.

Close your eyes for the last time
Accept the end.

Questioning everything that went wrong
Trying to understand what led to this point.

The silence she whispers to me
I am alone with my thoughts.

Telling me things we dare to speak out loud
Uncomfortable truths that we keep hidden.

The collaboration of the blinding sun
The brightness of the day is painful.

Through vacant streets hits home hard
The emptiness of the world is overwhelming.

Like a hatchet to the skull
The pain is intense and immediate.

I'd keep you here if you kept me warm
I want to hold on to what we had.

And these winters away
The coldness of the future.

Your hands were the only hands needed to hold me
Your touch was all I wanted.

For the first time in days
After all the hardship, I finally feel alive.

In the end we will both rot together
Our love is dead.

Our love lies in embers
The last remnants of our relationship.

Peering out of those same cracked windows
Looking at the same old broken world.

That I studied for day upon days
I am intimately familiar with this pain.

Suddenly collapse
Everything falls apart without warning.
