Don't Say Goodbye

Well, I'm trying to put it all, it all back into place
 Yeah, the way things were before, before I started the race
 Oh, the way I used to look, and the way I used to laugh
 And the way I used to carry myself, weightless on my back
 Oh, but you just want the middle ground
 The easy walk we took
 And you would never think to take a second look
 Oh, so backwards and vertical, the way I used to talk
 Yeah, you liked that there was a mystery
 And you like that I faked a rock
 Oh, and you liked that you didn't need me
 And you liked that I liked to steal
 But now, I'm on my way, I'm on my way to real
 And I'm putting it back together, like a busted plastic plane
 I need a lot of glue, and I've got a lot of pain
 And I'm sorry if that scares you
 Sorry that you're stuck
 And I'm sorry that I lied to you, when I said that "I would never give you up" yeah
 Don't say goodbye, yeah, just say goodbye
 Don't say goodbye, yeah, just say goodbye
 Say it, just say goodbye
 Oh, and so it's fear that keeps you
 Well, it keeps you all locked in
 You see no way out, and I see no way in
 Yes, well, you are the mouth, the mouth on my chin
 You are my disease
 You are my sin
 And you scream, "Don't leave me here alone
 Don't leave me here to lose
 I've got a big voice
 And I'll do anything for you
 Just give me one more chance
 Oh, give me one more try
 And I promise I won't kill you
 And I promise I won't lie"
 Well, yes, I hear you calling through your booming dark braid
 Yeah, I hear you calling, and you're asking me to stay
 But I have heard you before, before I soothed your rash
 Before I stopped the itch
 And I'll never, ever, ever take you back
 Don't say goodbye, yeah, just say goodbye
 Don't say goodbye, yeah, won't you say goodbye?
 Just say it, just say it
 Saying my heart, oh-oh-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh-oh)
 Don't say goodbye, oh-oh-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh-oh)
 Just say goodbye, oh-oh-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
