[Verse 1]

One last goodbye

And you'll leave it all behind

Say these words over and over

Until they start to sound right

One last denial

And you'll find the reason why

Many of us lose our lives before we die

[Verse 2]

You are afraid of being too blind to see

That you shut your eyes too tightly

Only so you can escape this reality

How many sorrows can you swallow and resist

Before the bitterness starts burning your lips

[Pre-Chorus]

Not waiting for the stars to fall from the sky

You choose to believe all the lies

Breaking away from these chains

[Chorus]

You run away, run away

And light one more fire

To not lose your way in the dark

Falling again and again

But you never tire

Hoping for a long goodbye

[Verse 3]

One voiceless cry

And it dries you up inside

You're oblivious to the pain that's reflected in your eyes

Feel the world spin

As you face the silver wind

You fell victim to this moment in a dream

[Pre-Chorus]

Still trying to reach the place beyond the clouds

You choose to believe all the lies

Breaking away from these chains

[Chorus]

You run away, run away

And light one more fire

To not lose your way in the dark

Falling again and again

But you never tire

Hoping for a long goodbye

[Bridge]

When the pieces of time fall apart in your hands

You'll soon forget the reasons that you had

For trying to put them back together again

[Chorus]

You run away, run away

And light one more fire

Write your name with dust

[Chorus]

You run away, run away

And light one more fire

To not lose your way in the dark

Falling again and again

But you never tire

Hoping for a long goodbye

[Outro]

Hoping for a long goodbye
