Long Goodbye Lyrics

Long Goodbye lyrics

Winters like a plague I fill the emptiness inside with broken glass 

Johnny's got his gun

and mamma's still cleaning up the blood he's laying in 

It's the long goodbye 

All thoughts become a mirror like anguish mimicking me 

When it's cold here mother I can see my breath on the window 

And I wonder what you thought of me 

Don't you turn around and leave me alone 

Everyone's standinghere but I'm on my own 

Don't you turn around and leave me alone 

With my curse casted in chrome 

It's the long goodbye 

Trust like a bandage binds your head 

To the guillotine and I know there's and empty space in your bed 

Where we used to sleep afraid of waking up dead 

Rest your weary head tomorrow we'll bury fallen gods in holy ground 

15 hours left til the redeemer claims his tax in human souls
