Goodbye to Yesterday

Famous last words

But I am still alive

You don’t seem to notice

The bitter taste of things you hate

It’s too late, investigate 

And read between the lines

This conclusion, it’s just an illusion

If we can just survive

And this consequence, It only makes some sense 

If you don’t want to try

I’d try to move mountains if it would amount to

Feeling yesterday’s not so far away

I’ve found the words to say

So as we walk away

Say goodbye to yesterday

Together we’re alone

And painful is the pride

That keeps it moving forward

We’re spinning wheels, that’s how it feels

With lost ideals, the fate is sealed

The loss is justified 

This seclusion has brought disillusion

We’re in the great divide

Without your pretense, there’s no need for defense

Appeals have been denied

I need to remind you, that I am resigned to

Feeling yesterday’s just too far away

I’ve found the words to say

So as we walk away

Say goodbye to yesterday

These things I should have said

I held it in and went to bed

If I had talked, if you had listened

We might have found the things we’re missing

In the end, it’s no one’s fault

Just take it all with a grain of salt 

Past the point of no return

They’re just the things we had to learn
