The Long Goodbye Lyrics

The 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 standing here 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 
Till the redeemer claims his tax in human
souls
