I will not sing another song for the dead
Because the dead, they are not listening
From now on all the songs that I sing
Will be songs sung for the living
I will not sing about my heartbreaks
It's better to sing about your heart aches
I will not sing about what I once had
But I'll sing about what I long to have
Because the future holds a chance
And you can never catch up to your past
You've got to look it right in the eye and say goodbye
I will not waste another minute of my time trying to raise the dead
I will not waste a second of my life
'Cause when some things are broken they can never be fixed
So I say goodbye because I'll never go back in time
So I say good bye
