[Verse 1]

I'm sure as hell not ready to die

But watching the world go by, we all figure out

We say goodbye a thousand times until it gets to the one that's closest to you

Even the devil cried watching his mother fly away

Well, I will never say goodbye

With all that I am, I'll bring you to life

Well, I will never say goodbye

With all that I am, I'll break down the skies


[Chorus]

If you're taken off the Earth

I have nothing left to lose

All on our own, we're all alone

Heading to the unknown, to the unknown


[Verse 2]

To watch the world fall apart in your eyes

No shred of innocence, no fervor left in me

This hatred's eating me inside my soul

If I mix a bit of water carbon, salt, and sulphur

Add a tad of lime and iron

Trace of phosphorus with the rest of it

Would your spirit come back to the flesh I made?

If I count to ten, will you come right back?

If I rule the world, would you come and take that?

If I die today for you, I'll come right back

What do I have to do to get our old life back?


[Chorus]

When you were taken off the Earth

I had nothing left to lose

All on our own, we're all alone

Heading to the unknown

So far away you've gone

Somewhere I won't belong

When you were taken off the Earth

I had nothing left to lose


[Breakdown]

Accepting death brings you closure they say

Then why does this burden now crash down on me?


[Bridge]

All the reminiscing turns to pure regret of how I left

You stranded in the mess I made

And leaving with a dream, I meant to please you in the end

But now I'm left without a purpose

If I count to ten, will you come right back?

If I rule the world, would you come and take that?

If I die today for you, I'll come right back

What do I have to do to get our old life back?


[Interlude]

So I will have to say goodbye

With all that I have, I'm sure that I tried

We say goodbye to million lives

And still we take life for granted


[Chorus]

When I'm taken off the Earth

Would I have nothing left to lose?

Live to move on, we weren't born alone

Heading to the unknown

So far away you've gone

Somewhere I won't belong

When I'm taken off the Earth

Would I have nothing left to lose?


[Outro]

So far away you've gone

Somewhere I won't belong

So far away you've gone

Somewhere I won't belong
