Goodbye by Hudson Wallace Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I remember when you rolled up on me
Never saw the dark that was bound for me
From the get go, you clowned around
Always central to the loud sound
You liked the attention I was the extension
From the truth from yourself you hid
Regaling us with all that you did
An explosion warped by your id
Mr Boombastic but not reggae fantastic
So enthusiastic but some would say dramatic
The first sign I should've seen came
When in my car you screamed a name
Of a girl you literally just met
And how visibly you were upset
Furious about it all
Thirty times you'd call
Most would take that as a no
But that's not the way you roll
Took two orders for you to go
For you to leave her alone
Now I sit here write and wonder
How I let it all happen and chose to help you shun her
Looking back it all seem so twisted
Thinking about all the times I assisted
Thinking about all the times you enlisted
Me to be your confidant, now I'm very confident
That there is no future, this is a tumour
I'm saying it's time clarity is sublime
As moments of pain increase, really hope you find peace
But this time I wanna find mine
[Hook]
In the ashes we stand I've done all I can
Looking up into the sky all that's left is goodbye
Curtain call onstage, close book, last page
Looking up into the sky all that's left is goodbye
[Verse 2]
I remember when I flew through the skies
Cause you said without me you would die
I came running each and every time
When I landed you seemed fine
Still liked the attention
Still was the extension
Slowly your manner began to turn on me
More that we became concerned to see
Your presence became withdrawed I see
No lessons had been learned
Still dramatic more erratic
The second sign I should've seen came
When you lied to everyone with the aim
To make me look insane
You even tried to turn her against me
You know who I mean don't play
How could you do that to someone you called a brother
Appalled your mother
All she wanted to do was love you
And you conjured images untrue
Like loving was a crime
Remember truth finds time
Looking back it all seem so twisted
Thinking about all the times I assisted
Thinking about all the times you enlisted
Me to be your confidant, now I'm very confident
That there is no future, this is a tumour
I'm saying it's time clarity is sublime
As moments of pain increase, really hope you find peace
But this time I wanna find mine
[Hook]
In the ashes we stand I've done all I can
Looking up into the sky all that's left is goodbye
Curtain call onstage, close book, last page
Looking up into the sky all that's left is goodbye
Goodbye
